Schmincke soft pastels contain the finest artists' pigments in the highest concentration using a minimum of binders. The extreme softness and colour strength of Schmincke pastels demand a very traditional forming process; the Pastels are so soft they must be labelled individually, by hand!

The full Schmincke pastel colour range includes 400 tones classified in 75 colour rows plus a range of neutral greys, extra dark colours, pearl lustre and metallic colours. Each of the 75 colour rows contain five pastels which are all variations on a pigment colour: one pure pigment pastel, one with added black, and three with increasing amounts of white added to lighten the colour. This gives a great colour spectrum and allows you to work with total freedom, knowing you have the right pastel for the job.

This set contains the complete assortment of 400 pastels. The pastels are arranged by colour in four removable wooden trays. These trays slot into the splendid presentation case, which is made of stained walnut. This case would make a stunning gift for any pastel artist.

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.

A broad spectrum of 60 colors to help you capture the sunrises and sunsets in pastels!

Each pastel in the Terry Ludwig range is crafted by hand with a broad range of pigments and minimal, natural binders. This results in a pastel which has a high-concentrated pigment and is velvety soft. Terry Ludwig began experimenting with formulas for making his own pastels in 1995 as he was frustrated with the lack of color options available and few choices for very soft pastels. He wanted to create a broad range of colors that were uniformly soft regardless of the density of the hue. There are now over 500 intense colors.

The square shape of the pastel allows you to equally create thick, broad strokes or thin, precise lines. The size and shape of each pastel may differ slightly as each one is handcrafted. Each pastel measures 1 1/2 inches x 1/2 x 1/2.

This set includes each of the following colours:  Y030, G340, A060, A092, R422, A010, R010, R060, V450, V344, G062, B290, Y032, Y073, A080, A272, R482, A040, R020, R269, V340, V052, T320, T080, Y034, Y072, Y010, A046, R484, A054, R032, R268, V339, V375, B522, B542, Y036, G342, A042, A048, R442, A020, R034, R267, V372, V272, B203, B080, Y077, Y074, A044, Y076, R362, R349, R246, R266, B562, V292, T376, B166

This complete set of 525 Sennelier Soft Pastels contains the entire Sennelier Soft Pastel Range and is presented in a beautifully varnished wooden box.

Sennelier Soft Pastels are one of the world's largest chromatic pastel ranges and consist of high quality pure pigment finely grounded with a natural binder. The high quality composition of “à l’écu” pastels is the result of a perfect balance between binder and pigment. For gradient shades, increasing amounts of mineral fines are added, ultimately tending towards white. The exceptional brightness is the result of the pigment and of the natural mineral fines discovered by Sennelier in 1905 and that have been used ever since.

The manufacturing process of the Sennelier cylindrical pastel does not compress the paste and the pastel dries naturally in open air. The life span of a piece of work is guaranteed by the quality of the pastel, but also by the quality of the substrate. 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.

This full range pastel collection makes a wonderful art gift for any professional pastel artist, or is a luxurious treat to yourself.

This 60-piece Skies & Water Set was hand chosen by renowned artist Liz Haywood-Sullivan. This is a great set for pastelists interested in painting landscapes, skies, and water. “This set is something I have been working on for a long time, made up of colors found in two of my favourite subjects, skies and water. Working closely with master colorologist Terry Ludwig and his staff in creating it, I was mindful of choosing colors not commonly found in other sets to prevent replication. In fact, some of the blues and greys were specially formulated for this set.” “With these pastels you should have all the colors, and values, you need to create a complete sky or water painting. Enjoy!” –Artist Liz Haywood-Sullivan.
