Pastels

Art pastels are a versatile & popular medium used by artists for creating colourful work, they come in various forms & are known for their rich, vibrant colours & ability to blend easily.
Soft pastels are often used for creating detailed art effects & are favoured for their ability to be easily blended, smudged & layered.
Hard pastels are ideal for creating sharp lines, details & for underdrawings in pastel artworks.
Oil pastels are excellent for creating rich, vibrant works that can be layered, blended & manipulated in a way similar to oil paints.
