Application
• When using pastels the dry, coloured powder of the pastel is transferred onto the ground.
• Special pastel paper is usually used. Contrary to paint, pastel does not bind to the ground through use of a binder. The pastel powder remains within the fiber of the paper
• With the pastel painting technique the colours are mixed in the artwork itself. If too many layers are placed on top of one another the grounds can become saturated and new layers will not be able to adhere. One can therefore not apply layer upon layer.
• For this reason the range has many intermediate shades with black and white so that dark and light gradations of colour do not have to be mixed.
