Can you laminate oil pastel pictures.

While not used interchangeably soft pastels hard pastels and pastel pencils can be used in combination with each other in the same painting. It s possible but i do not recommend that you laminate oil pastels for the reasons i have given below. Lamination has its place however for oil pastels it is not ideal and there are alternatives which are better. If it s not oil or wax pastels you might be ok depending on what the fixative you used says about heat.

Try holding the pastel vertically near the tip for example to make thick rounded markings. You only need three things. I show you how to store and protect your pastel paintings. If you re using chalk pastels experiment with different grips for different effects.

If you re using oil pastels layer your drawing by making an underpainting before you put several colors on top to give it depth and definition. This is the mo. I told the boys. I wonder if we can draw on the laminating sheets we got out some pastels and i opened up a laminating pocket and taped it to the table one for each of the boys.

There are other ways to protect your artwork that are better for it and work much better.
