PanPastel™ colours are a revolutionary new medium for artists. These are the first pastels that have the unique benefit of being inter-mixable, eliminating the need to invest in hundreds of colors for a complete pastel palette. Artists working in pastel can achieve a more painterly effect than ever before, including techniques for blocking in large areas of colour in seconds as well as applying ultra-thinglazing layers. All of the 80 PanPastel
professional-quality colours are highly pigmented and lightfast. They
work wonderfully in conjunction with traditional pastel sticks, as well
as with other dry media such as coloured pencil and charcoal. The
special formulation of PanPastel™ colours delivers an amazingly soft
pastel with virtually no dust, and the clever packaging allows them to
be stacked together for easy storage or travel for plein air painters. Artists love the fact that unlike with other mediums, there is no lengthy preparation waiting time when working and clean-up is quick and easy. The colours will not dry out and the tools are easily washable and reusable.
Aside from the advantages mentioned above, artists are also attracted to the incredible value that PanPastel colours offer; each pan contains almost 40% more than the average soft pastel stick. Combined with the much lower dust levels and increased colour control, each PanPastel pan can yield approximately 3-5 times more coverage than a traditional pastel stick.
