Sennelier Oil Sticks offer a fresh, expressive way to work with traditional oil paint. Made from pure pigments ground with vegetable oils and a touch of neutral mineral wax, these solid sticks deliver the same rich colour and handling as tube oils, just in a more spontaneous, versatile form.
Each shade is highly pigmented and lightfast, ensuring long-lasting brilliance. The colours can be applied directly to a wide range of prepared surfaces including canvas, boards, and paper. Layers can be blended, glazed with medium, or built up for texture, offering complete creative freedom.
Why we like it:
We love the immediacy of Sennelier Oil Sticks, they bring a direct, expressive quality to oil painting. Perfect for sketching ideas, working on location, or adding bold marks to larger works. The soft, buttery feel of these oil sticks makes them a pleasure to work with
Key features:
Artists’ quality oil paint in solid stick form

I bought this brush some time ago based on a recommendation from someone— can't remember who though. I then forgot about it until I received a request to write a review from The Southbank Art Company. I've now tried it, and I've found it to be a lovely brush to use. It lays down the paint beautifully. It also holds a lot of paint enabling continued use without having to return to the palette so often. The point of the brush is good too, giving a lovely narrow lines where necessary.
I'll continue to use this brush, and will probably look at buying other sizes too.

Great experience. The staff were really kind, you can tell they genuinely care about creativity and the people walking in the door. It made the whole experience feel that much more personal. My order came to less than it would have cost from Winsor & Newton directly, which made it possible to get everything I needed without compromising on quality. Great selection, thoughtful service, and a warm atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back!
