Artists’ Soft Pastels Over many decades Daler-Rowney have perfected the art of soft pastel making. The finest available pigments are combined with other ingredients to give the smoothest and most consistent painting experience through a carefully balanced range of 186 tints.
The softness of each pastel enables the production of rich graduated velvet tones of unsurpassed richness and hue. Daler-Rowney Artists’ Soft Pastels now have the softest, creamiest mark providing the most consistent coverage.
All colours come in tints of 1-4 (4 being the deepest) with each vibrant colour derived from precise blending of finest quality pigments. Each colour has the same pigment combination, which is then mixed with superior quality chalk & china clay to produce the different tints. All colours are non-hazardous with minimal tendency to crumble and dust.
The lightfastness of the range is unsurpassed.
