PanPastel Set - Portrait Set of 20

Paint with pastels in a revolutionary new way.

PanPastel is a line of professional artist quality soft pastel colours packed in a convenient pan format. Created with a unique manufacturing process requiring minimal binder and fillers, they are rich, ultra-soft and super-blendable colours that allow you to easily lift, apply, and control pastels with the dynamic application of painting. Each pack contains 0.30 fl oz (9 ml) of colour that will provide you with at least 4-5 times more coverage than traditional pastels, leaving behind minimal dust.

Compatible with almost any other artist media, these pastel colours are easy to work with. No drying or preparation time is needed; no solvents or other special mediums are required. Being a very forgiving medium, you can use any eraser to correct your mistakes or remove colour to create highlights.

The pan format protects the colours, keeping them separate and clean in the studio and when transporting them. The pans stack up securely together, making it easy to store and organize the colours, minimizing the amount of storage space required.

While most of the colours in this line are lightfast, some colours may fade over time when exposed to light. Please refer to this PanPastel colour chart for a complete list of lightfast ratings.

All the colours have been independently tested to ASTM D-4236 standards, and are certified with the ACMI AP Non-Toxic seal. They have also been tested and certified as lead-free.
