Disc AS Soft Pastel Jumbo Size T Crimson

Art Spectrum Soft Pastels provide the artist with colours that are pure, brilliant and intense, and remain that way. The very best pigments are selected and triple milled at maximum concentration to bring out the finest colour and provide the rich, velvety bloom valued by pastellists. This method of production produces smouldering darks, brilliant and intense pure colours and a range of subtle and delicate tints. All Art Spectrum pure pigment pastels are free from heavy metals, asbestos or other toxic substances. All colours are available in two sizes, Standard and Studio (Jumbo). The range of colours includes some that are unique to the Australian landscape, for example, Australian Red Gold, Pilbara Red, Jacaranda. Unlike other brands, Art Spectrum pastels are not uniform in their softness. This is because of the different nature and composition of the various pigments that are used, and the manufacturer believes that the addition of extenders or softeners would reduce the brilliance and purity of the colours."
