Soft pastels allow anyone to unleash their creativity and immerse themselves intimately with bold and beautiful color. Pastel drawings and paintings glow with an intensely luminous color and rich velvety texture because pastel powder is pure pigment! Pastel straddles the line between painting and drawing. Finished pieces can look just as luscious and luminescent as paintings, yet the process resembles drawing more than painting. Soft pastel is one of the most exciting and versatile of all painting mediums. Both professional and hobby artists enjoy soft pastel for its unique looks and application methods. Once you’ve learned some simple soft pastel drawing techniques, you’re bound to fall in love with this fantastic drawing medium!
