Art Crayon

Built for mixed media artists, these buttery smooth wax-based pastels are lightfast, richly pigmented, and water-soluble. Create rich textures, blend and stamp colors for beautiful backgrounds, brush with water for transparent effects, or use reductive techniques like wipe stenciling. Marabu Art Crayons blend similarly to oil pastels without any messy, oily residue and come in a convenient, retractable holder with an ergonomic grip for easy handling and added control. Once the colors cure, glassine is not needed to protect the images. Marabu Art Crayons are great for absorbent or semi-absorbent surfaces such as gesso, canvas, wood, plaster, bisque-fired clay, and paper.
