The oil pastels, made by the
established Danish company Filia, have been a classic in Danish schools
for decades. The lightfast colours are transparent and mix very well.
They allow for many interesting drawing techniques. Using a sponge and
turpentine, it is possible to make an oil pastel drawing look like a
watercolour. The classic Filia Oil Crayons are square and pointed for
the drawing of defined contours. The edges or the flat surfaces are
suitable for two-dimensional drawing and shading.
