Well, with 3 years in and hundreds of oil pastel paintings, I've changed my mind on fixative. In this video I talk about some of the fixatives I've used over the years and my experience with them. I now have a clear favorite. Watch this video if you're interested in giving your oil pastel artwork 100% protection just by using a final fixative. I'll demonstrate in real time my favorite one. It took 11 layers to get full coverage with it, but it is solid (practically bullet proof !!) and fully covered. This is more than just "smudge" proof.
