Sakura’s Pigma® Micron® and Cray-Pas® Expressionist® oil pastels are combined to turn a favorite photo into a unique handcrafted item. A plain 100% cotton canvas is transformed into a keepsake quilt home décor wall hanging. Each simple step of the creative process is demonstrated by designer Julie Fei-Fan Balzer in a video. View the Oil Pastel Canvas Photo Quilt video.
Cray-Pas® Expressionist® with its extra fine quality pigment formulation is suitable for many surfaces: paper, cardboard, canvas and wood. 48 colors in 5 color sets; plus the new Cray-Pas® Expressionist® Multi-Cultural set. Available now, Expressionist® Extender expands a color hue; available in a 2 stick set.
Pigma® Micron® pigment ink pen is selected for fine-point technical and artistic applications requiring archival permanence.
Recommendations: The inks on fabrics are for “decorative purposes only” – do not launder. Use only pre-laundered textile, 100% cotton. Most importantly, do pre-test materials on fabric scraps prior to the final application.
