Loose Pastel Colours

Pastel Colors

Loose pastel colors offer several advantages for artists looking for flexibility and customization in their creative work within the Fine Arts, as you will be able to create your own set with specific colors according to needs and preferences.

On the other hand, you will be able to replenish those colors you need without having to buy complete sets or expand your sets, so it is also a very economical and sustainable option to obtain your materials.

Pastel pencils

Pastel colors in pencil maintain the high concentration of pigments and binders in a more comfortable and clean format, so they are very versatile tools that cannot be missing in your art materials. Painting with a pastel pencil will allow you to create details that are finer, blend, shade, smudge or adjust strokes with ease, which provides greater flexibility.

You will be able to find them both in the format of oil pastel with a creamy and fluid texture that allows you to create more or less intense or translucent layers with great resistance to fading; or also in the format of dry pastel or soft with greater color intensity and high pigment concentration that will allow you to create more precise and vibrant strokes. For both cases you will need to use a suitable paper as appropriate.

Pastel sticks

Pastel sticks allow you to approach artistic creation with pastel in a more sensory, as well as expressive and versatile way.

Unlike pastel pencils, sticks have a greater concentration of pure pigment and fewer binders in order to apply them more quickly and broadly on the support, thanks also to their format and size. They blend easily with each other, allowing artists to achieve smooth gradients and rapid shading effects, achieving a variety of effects.

You will be able to find them both in the format of oil pastel with a creamy and fluid texture that allows you to create more or less thick or translucent layers with great resistance to fading; or also in the format of dry pastel or soft with greater color intensity and high pigment concentration. For both cases you will need to use a suitable paper as appropriate.

Ultimately, loose pastel colors are the best option to create artworks that are intense, customizable and especially very sustainable.
