No. While I would consider neither material "liquidly", oil paint is a wet, oil based substance to paint with, while oil pastel is used much more in the way that one would use chalk. However, Oil pastels are oil based, rather than chalk, which is not oil based and is distinctly more dry.

Why does pastels look like chalk?

Invented by Children.I have been wondering that as well. They also seem to look like crayons. Other wise I'm really not that sure of why they look like chalk.It may look like crayons and chalk, but I think it may be out of oil. But then it might have to feel like oil is put in the pastels. I used them, but I'm still not sure. They must look like chalk and crayons because: 1. Chalk almost looks like pastels because it has the same size and shape. It even feels like chalk. 2.Crayons have thoes wrappers around it. That is what pastels have too. It looks like crayons, but it has no tip.


What are the different drawing tools?

Pencils- any type. Pens- fineliners, ball point pens, markers etc. Rulers/guides- like templates, set squares and French curves. Paper- depending on what medium you are working with different types are used. Such as paper, card, bleed-proof board. I think technically you could say soft pastels, oil pastels, watercolours and other paints. Depends if you're approaching it at a Graphical or Artistic point of view.
