The Sennelier Oil Pastel Discovery Set of 6 is an excellent introduction to this range of versatile, lipstick-soft, premium quality oil pastels.

Sennelier Oil Pastels are made using the best pigments, an extremely pure synthetic binding medium, and mineral wax. The pigments are ground with an inert, non-siccative binding medium that does not oxidise and that has no effect on either film stability or surface. This base is then mixed with a pH neutral wax. The balance of this mix provides Sennelier oil pastels with a creamy texture that allows for a great deal of freedom in pictorial expression.

Sennelier Oil Pastels possess an extraordinarily high pigment content, thus providing them with high colouring and covering potential, excellent brightness, and a high degree of light stability across the range (with the exception of metallic and fluorescent shades).

This set comes in a robust cardboard storage box and contains the following six colours:

Sennelier extra soft pastels are composed of high quality pure pigment grounded with a natural transparent binder. The exceptional brightness is the result of the pigment and of the natural mineral fines discovered by Sennelier in 1905 and used in their pastels ever since. For gradient shades, increasing amounts of mineral fines are added, ultimately tending towards white. The high quality composition of “à l’écu” pastels is the result of a perfect balance between binder and pigment.

This set of 100 Sennelier Extra Soft Pastels comes in a wooden box for safe storage and transport. The colours have been specially selected for landscape artists, who generally require a wider selection of greens, blues and earths than portraitists.

Use on toothy surfaces such as pastel paper. If a lot of overlapping is performed, it is preferable to fix between layers. Avoid, however, fixing the final layer too heavily, as the original tones will be lost. Please remember that the lifespan of a pastel drawing depends on both the quality of the pastel, and the quality of the paper or card it is executed on.

This set of 100 Sennelier Soft Pastels contains a briliant selection of pastels that are perfect for portraits - presented in a beautiful wooden box.

The pastels in this box are kept secure by the foam lining within the box. The handsome box is beautifully finished to the highest standard and is suitable for travel or plein air. Your pastels will remain safe and will not break while stored in it.

This set contains a wide selection of 120 Unison hand-rolled Soft Pastels.

Unison pastels are the creation of artist John Hersey. From a converted coach house in Northumberland, England, John and a small band of artisans lovingly make Unison pastels by hand, cutting no corners, accepting no compromise. They make small batches of 100 to 200 pastels at a time. Each stick is hand rolled and allowed to air dry. This produces a soft pastel which is eager to embrace the tooth of your drawing paper. There is a richness, a smoothness and an intensity you will find nowhere else.

John Hersey developed Unison's colour scheme in unified cycles of 18 colours. He observed from nature that a single colour takes on endless variations of hue depending on the quality of light that strikes it. After 15 years of experimentation, his pastels reflect the true nature of colour. They have a colour scheme that flows from nature itself, seducing the eye with its power.

Please note, colours may vary.

This set provides a palette suitable for capturing water and seascapes. The addition of light violets and pinks help create the white water of a crashing wave.
