PanPastel • Artist Pastel Pearl Medium White Fine 011

This pastel from PanPastel is a dry pastel that is pressed in handy, round plastic boxes. Unlike traditional stick-shaped pastels, you apply PanPastel with special sponges and applicators, called Sofft Tools. Because of this, working with these pastels feels almost like painting with dry paint. This pearl medium white (colour 011) has an extra soft formulation for drawing, painting and mixed-media work. The colour has a velvety effect and can be dry mixed and blended, allowing you to build smooth transitions and soft gradations. Due to the low dust formation you work in a controlled and neat way, while the colour can be applied and built up evenly in layers.

The box has a diameter of 6.2 cm and contains pigments of titanium dioxide and mica particles coated with iron oxide. This pastel has ASTM lightfastness 1, which stands for excellent lightfastness. The formula is erasable, so you can adjust details or rebuild them while working. For an even and controlled application use this product with Sofft Tools. That makes it suitable for artist pastels, colour transitions and precise layering on paper and in other mixed-media projects.
