Marcus Art Oil Pastels can be used by students in primary and secondary schools right through to professional artists.

The versatiliy of this pastel is the consequence of a very balanced formula of wax, oil pigments and minerals.

The set includes a brilliant Titanium White with 100% covering power and a Blending White that enables the artist to retain rich colour intensity whilst exploring subtle gradations of tone and hue. The range also includes Copper, Silver and Gold.
