Unison Soft Pastels Set of 36 - Landscape Colors

Soft Pastels Set of 36 - Landscape Colors, Unison

Following a unique recipe, all the dry pigments for each specific color is added to a bowl. It is mixed carefully and binder is added where needed. The mixture is thoroughly mixed to a thick consistency, and then spooned out in equal proportions onto sheets of blotting paper, resting until they are dry enough to handle. Drying time at this step can vary depending on pigment. The spooned out portions are then squeezed to release excess water, to prepare them for rolling. Each portion is then carefully rolled into the pastel shape by hand, to give a unique texture that will help provide a consistent response. After drying slightly longer on the blotting paper, the rolled pastels are then cut to size with a handmade cutting tool. The pastels are then gently placed on wire trays and dried overnight in a very gentle heat. Then they are taken and stored in the packing room, to await hand-labeling.
