The smooth sides make them clean and easy to handle. They can be blended just like ordinary pastels. Available in 96 colors. Nupastel sticks are strong and rigid, yet are soft enough to leave color on all artist's paper and media. Part of most major artists' color palettes, Nupastels are made with a combination of pigments and dyed clays.
Firm sticks are cleaner and stronger than ordinary pastels.
Creamy texture for easy blending. Large sticks for longer use. Use to create broad strokes or fine lines for detail. Less dusting means a cleaner area, neater work and less erasure. 24-color portrait set.
