    "Excellent!"
    This Damp Earth set is wonderful! It has become a surprising standout star in building my landscape paintings. The colors are rich and read very well. They can be applied with equal ease at any point in the painting, from the early "ground" layers to final enhancements. This set is one of my must-haves for landscape work.

    "Perfect for plein air in the park."
    These pastels have some grit and go onto the paper quite well. I can also use them to make some interesting marks. The colors work well in the woods or near rivers and streams.

    "Lovely pastels"
    Exactly as I had heard in reviews, these Townsends are soft but have an odd grit to they. Go on smoothly and work well with other pastels and the surface. Color is true ans saturated. Size is about average; we'll see how long they last. This collection was as pictured, but be aware that backlit screen views of color are always a bit more vibrant than the reality.

    Loved the colors perfect for Maine landscapes. Took them to class and one or two others in class were impressed and considering purchasing them.. in addition the pastels themselves are a good texture.
