How does one use watercolor pencils?
I've never heard of water soluble oil pastels. I work with water soluble oils, and I have tried oil pastels but don't use them on a regular basis. I can research this for you and hopefully give you a better answer soon. Update. I found a great deal of information on WetCanvas.com in their oil pastel forum. You may want to check there for more detailed. Basically you can just apply water to blend out the color instead of turps like you would with regular oil pastels. You can apply it dry and just layer it, or wet it to give a watercolor effect. You can also wet the surface and then apply it. Experimentation is the key. The related link will give you more detail

Is pastel chalk the same as chalk?
No, it's not. Pastel chalk or soft pastel is easier to blend and draw with because it is softer, hence the name, soft pastel. Soft pastels are made of ground pigments, gum tragacanth, and a filler. Chalk simply has a dye added to its mixture and is harder. Unlike pastels, chalk is made up of gum Arabic which washes off with water.
How to paint with pastels?
Pastels are the perfect medium for capturing movement. That�s why the great 19th century artist Edgar Degas, famous for his stunning portraits of ballet dancers, used them so often. While we can�t promise to turn you into a Degas, we can show you some basic techniques that will make you just as enthusiastic about this medium as he was.Pastel SuppliesYou�ll need some specialized supplies to work with pastels. Heavy drawing paper: Part of the appeal of the medium is that the texture of the paper comes through. Hard charcoal in a dark color like brown or black for sketching. Soft pastels for laying down colors and feathering: Three favorite brands here are Rembrandt, Sennelier and NuPastel. A craft knife and a piece of medium grade sandpaper for sharpening your pastels. Some brushes for feathering. And a fixative of some sortStarting Out With PastelsThe basic rule in working with pastels is: soft over hard. Start out with darker colors and harder chalks. Unlike some other drawing and painting media, such as watercolor and ink, you can apply lighter pastel over darker pastel, and while the surface color will be tempered by what�s beneath it, it won�t be obscured.Use a sharpened dark charcoal to sketch your subject. Don�t worry too much if the lines aren�t perfect: You will cover them or tone them down later with your colored pastels.Next, lay down patches of color within your sketch. Use the side of your pastel or a broken piece to cover larger areas. Use as light a touch as you can so you don�t clog the paper weave too soon in the process. Blend this first layer with water or rubbing alcohol.Building Your Pastel DrawingContinue building layers of color. Don�t lay them straight down on the paper: Hatch and cross hatch. As you lay down your pastel layers, continue to adjust your hues by laying down a color and laying another color on top of it. Smudge the colors very gently with your fingers for a richer look. Unify and soften the colors and vary your strokes, combining angular lines with stippling. Finally, apply your highlights as a softer pastel gradient.Step back and look at your drawing. Pastels are a medium that benefit from a good teacher so if you�ve enjoyed this introduction, consider signing up for a pastels class.
