You needed it to balance the nice hair ;-) I like it even with the neck. I never worked with oil stick, what's the difference to wax crayons? I imagine the quality of the wax is much better, but on the way you work with them? the watercolour guy looks a lot like Kenzaburo Oe, did you meet him in the tube? Have you read him?
Oilstick: its very soft, almost liquid to draw with. You can smudge it more than oil pastels, even scratch into the surface with a needle. The best thing is it dries (after a couple of days/weeks) completely like oil paint, then it's stable, no more smudging. It's delicious, the black is black black black. The packaging says you can combine it with/ draw on oil paint and I assume on canvas. I want to experiment with diluting it with turpentine.

Yes I met him on the tube but he didn't talk to me. Maybe because I haven't read his work.
