In this course, you will learn how to create a beautiful bouquet using oil sticks as your medium. Oil sticks are a versatile and unique tool that allow you to blend and layer colors in a way that is not possible with traditional oil paints. To get started, you will need to gather the following materials:

First, you will need a set of oil sticks in a variety of colors. These can be found at most art supply stores and come in individual sticks or sets. Make sure to choose colors that blend well together and represent the color scheme you want for your bouquet. Next, you will need a canvas or thick paper to create your artwork on. A smooth surface works best for oil sticks, as they can be easily blended and manipulated on this type of material.

Additionally, you will need a palette knife or brush for blending and mixing colors. Spray or liquid varnish for oil paint to finish your work. Finally, make sure to have some paper towels or rags on hand for wiping off excess materials and keeping your workspace clean throughout the process.
