Choosing Pastels

May 28, 2012 | Pastels

There are so many pastels .. and they are not cheap. How does one choose which to purchase.

Nupastel has a 96 stick set. These colors are clear, not chalky and cove a range of values and hues. I take them on location and complete most of a painting.  They are a very good beginning set.

I add next a Sennilier Black Green and  Terry Ludwig deep purple. These two colors provide the deep darks not provided in the other set.
