Pompeian Red Faber Castell Pitt Pastel Pencil

R65.00

The Pitt pastel pencils contain a high level of pigment, but are wax and oil free, and are perfectly suited for fine details in pastels
Just like the Polychromos pastel crayons they can be easily smudged to create fine colour transitions and perfectly complement the pastel crayons
Only minimal fixing is required, ensuring that the pastel drawings retain their vividness of colour
Faber Castell Pitt artists’ pastel pencils, with their oil-free pastel leads, are used by artists not only as the perfect complement to pastel crayons for elaborating fine details, but also on their own
Many artists who enjoy pastel techniques and their versatility, but not the dirty hands and coloured dust that accompany them, have opted to use these special pencils
Pitt pastel pencils have a very compact lead which is economical to use
The lead contains a high level of pigment, making the pencils ideally suited both to drawing lines and shading, as well as blending and merging into delicate colour transitions
The colour selection in this range places a particular emphasis on the muted shades and earth tones that are especially important for pastel drawing
