I started to use it long time ago but I\u2019m still discovering its incredible qualities and new things ever since. \u2028Soft pastel contains mostly a pure pigment and just enough of the binder to hold the stick together and is therefore the purest color you can apply. \u2028It\u2019s so exciting when I open my big old boxes full with pastels that I\u2019ve been collecting for years and start painting directly with the sticks that I suddenly found myself using all my fingers as brushes blending the colors on the paper.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t be mistaken. This is a serious technique used from Sixteenth Century till our days and from such recognized painters as Delacroix, Millet, Manet, Renoir, Toulouse-Lautrec, Therese Schwartze, Redon, Vuillard, Bonnard or even Degas, the most prolific painter in Pastel. Today many of the most renowned living artists have distinguished themselves in pastels and their works can be found in the best museum collections around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Get yourself surprised and be welcome to Pastel world![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8452&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row font_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1666374772559{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background: #2d2d2d url(https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/about-v1.jpg?id=7565) !important;}&#8221; background_style=&#8221;normal&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1455763140884{margin-top: -60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_row_inner type=&#8221;boxed&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1404485963952{margin-bottom: 75px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1404743813549{padding-right: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;light_text&#8221;]The soft pastel is an amazing medium.
