This unique assortment of pastel tools are selected by professional artists, making a wide range of exciting effects possible. Each pack contains a taper point and flat chisel colour shaper plus a fan brush and blender brush.
Available in 2 sizes, Size 2 and Size 6.
I bought the two different sized sets, 2 and 6, both perform equally well, the shapers feel very light and are of sturdy construction, the filaments of the fans are synthetic, and stay in place, the pastel card surface doesnt abrade them very much, and they are useful for more definitive blending and shaping and making semi-circles, not only for foliage
The #6 brush blender is my favorite, blends as smudges, but much more neatly than using fingers
The round and flat silicone tips are thick and carefully shaped,
The round tip can be used for pushing the chalk as a pencil and for stippling
The flat tip is good for making streaks, and adding a little bit of shadow under clouds
These tools are well constructed and easy to clean, will last a long time
Every pastel artist should have both sets
The tips and brush parts are attached to the short, lightweight handle by a smooth metal ferrule
Clean easily with a little brush soap and water, then dry with a paper towel
Adds value to pastel drawings by enaing the artist to push the limits of the chalk a little further
I compared them to my oil and watercolor brushes, and they are designed differently, they are not a typical brush
Each set of 4 comes in a plastic holder
Great value and excellent possibilities for creativity
Very happy to have them Alexis Moore (Miami, USA) on 7 Jan 2018
