Cray-Pas® Specialist® Oil Pastel 50-Color Set

Cray-Pas® Alvin Crayon Specialist 50/Pk Assts pastels.

Pastels are one of the most rewarding mediums an artist can work with, as beautiful to look at, as to work with, offering the quickness of watercolors and  the vibrancy of oil paints, but unlike watercolors, they do not dull or yellow, nor do they fade like oils.

As with paint, the quality of pastels depends on the pigments that go into them.Alvin Crayon Specialist uses only the finest pigments, resulting in colors that range from bold and vibrant to soft and muted. The square sticks produce a wide variety of effects from fine lines, to broad, intense strokes, to shading.
