How to use

Select a compatible paper or surface and apply the soft pastel sticks with light pressure to build colour gradually. Blend tones using fingers, blending stumps or soft cloth to achieve smooth transitions and gradients. Use the edge of the stick for finer lines and the flat side for broader coverage. After completing the artwork, allow any loose pastel dust to settle and fix the work with an appropriate spray fixative to reduce smudging and preserve colours.

Usage recommendations

Store pastels in a dry, cool place and keep them separated or in their original box to avoid colour transfer. Work on a protected surface to collect excess dust and ventilate the workspace when using fixative sprays.
