PASTEL PENCILS are great for sketching, detail work, and finished paintings. To make the pigment durable enough to form a lead, the pastel is by necessity a little harder than pastel sticks. Care is required in sharpening due to the combination of soft pastel lead and wood casing - make sure you have a fresh blade in your sharpener. All pastel pencils are somewhat water-soluble. |
