Diane Townsend : Artists' Pastels : Soft Form
10 sets available.
Diane Townsend Artists’ Pastels are hand made soft pastels for artists.
Diane began making them in 1971 with a 15th-century Italian formula, translated by a conservationist she shared a studio with. The formula has been refined over the last 45 years to create a smooth, flowing pastel that is as rich in pigment as possible.
Soft Form pastels are designed to fit comfortably in the hand and with easel painting in mind. They are easy to apply and use as you work. The soft form palette contains both classical artists’ colours and a vivid range of modern pigments such as naphthol red and the fluorescent pigments.
There are 48 special colours, consisting of 16 metallic, 12 pearlescent, 10 iridescent, and 10 fluorescent colours.
Due to the high pigment ratio to pumice, these pastels are softer than some other brands such as Unison or Schmincke.
Soft Form pastels are approx. 1 3/4in long and 3/4in thick.
