In Brief

If you're looking for soft pastels, you can choose just what you need here. Soft pastels are ideal for painting landscapes and large areas, while hard pastels and pastel pencils are great for details and portraits. We offer them individually and in sets. Don't forget textured paper and fixative to set your work. Unlike oil pastels, soft pastels have a matte finish and are easy to blend.

Soft Pastels – Gentle Color Transitions and a Velvety Texture

Soft pastels are a popular medium among portrait artists, landscape artists, and illustrators. The pigment is applied directly to the paper and can be beautifully blended with a finger, blending stump, or special tool. The result is gentle color transitions, a velvety texture, and an airy quality to the drawing.

What Soft Pastels Do We Offer?

  • Soft Pastels – the most intense paints, easy to apply and blend
  • Hard Pastels – for details and fine lines
  • Pastel Pencils – a combination of pastel and pencil for precise work

We offer brands including Schmincke, Faber-Castell, Koh-i-noor, and Daler-Rowney.

Tips for Working with Soft Pastels

Use special paper for pastels (textured, such as Canson Mi-Teintes). Always fix your finished drawing with fixative, or the pigment will smudge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Working with Soft Pastels Get Messy?

Yes, soft pastels create dust. We recommend working over a protective surface and keeping wet wipes on hand. When you're done, fix the drawing with spray fixative.
