Talens Art Creation water-soluble oil pastels are creamy oil pastels that apply smoothly and blend easily, just like regular oil pastels. The difference though, is that besides applying them directly to paper, you can mix these pastels with water to create even smoother colour transitions and to make the intense colours more transparent for a watercolour effect.
 
Apply water to (parts of) your paper using a wet brush, wet the pastels before applying them or use a wet brush to deposit colour directly from the pastel onto the paper. Create even colours by smoothing the texture of already applied dry oil pastel marks with a wet brush for seamless colour blending and transitions.
