What are Tempera Paint Sticks?

Hello everyone,

It is time for another Art Materials Review!


This month I am exploring tempera paint sticks – a material I originally bought for a children's workshop a few years ago, but one that has gradually become a real favourite in my own creative practice.


In this video, I share what tempera paint sticks are, how they work, and some of the ways I like to use them. I create a journal page with them and talk about why I find them such a freeing, playful medium to work with.

What I love most is that they are bold, colourful, quick-drying and surprisingly versatile. They can be wonderful for sketchbooks, journaling, mixed media work and anyone who wants to loosen up and create without worrying too much about getting things perfect.

These look interesting. They remind me of the pastels that you used durubg your daily art series. Shortly after that I recieved a few in a subscription art supply box and really liked them so I just got a set to start working with!

Teddy week!

Challenging myself not to use an eraser….. so hard on my perfectionism!!

they are so cute!

And I like to see the helping lines and shapes you didn´t erase.

I tried to do the Amsterdam street from the Line and Wash class, but my arthritic hands stopped me from controlling the paint properly. Still fun though
