{"product_id":"faber-castell-oil-pastels","title":"Oil pastels","description":"\u003cp\u003eYoung artists need materials that respond to their developing skills without fighting back. These oil pastels deliver smooth, controllable color that blends readily under fingers or tools, letting kids focus on creating rather than wrestling with resistant pigments. Bright, opaque hues layer cleanly and can be smoothed with baby oil for softer effects, a technique that transforms the pastels from simple drawing tools into something closer to painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHexagonal barrels solve the eternal classroom problem of rolling pastels disappearing under furniture. The shape provides natural grip orientation while keeping sticks stationary on slanted desks. Acid-free, non-toxic formulation means parents and teachers can hand these to children without safety concerns. Each set includes a practical guide covering blending, shading, and tinting techniques that help young artists understand what's possible beyond basic coloring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reusable carrying case keeps everything organized between projects and survives the reality of how kids transport art supplies. Available in 12 and 24 color sets to match different needs and budgets. These pastels meet children where they are skill-wise while offering enough quality to support genuine artistic exploration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber-Castell","offers":[{"title":"set of 12","offer_id":47979196383461,"sku":"37623","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"set of 24","offer_id":47979196416229,"sku":"37716","price":7.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s37623.jpg?v=1761725652","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/faber-castell-oil-pastels","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
