Info
The 80 colors featured in the Sennelier Soft Pastel Plein Air Landscape Set were carefully chosen for their ability to mix to create the broadest range of landscape colors possible. These 80 extra-fine soft pastels of 100% pure pigment are half-sized in length, but fatter in width than a standard full stick.
It took over three years, at the turn of the 20th century, to formulate the Sennelier range of Extra Soft Pastels and thus to create one of the largest chromatic range of pastels available. Throughout the century, this range of tones has evolved, but the heart of its making remains unchanged. A Sennelier soft pastel is composed of high quality pure pigment grounded with a natural transparent binder.
The high quality composition of these pastels is the result of a perfect balance between binder and pigment. For gradient shades, increasing amounts of fine minerals are added, ultimately tending towards white. The exceptional brightness is the result of the pigment and of the natural fine minerals discovered by Sennelier in 1905 and that have been used ever since.
The manufacturing process of the Sennelier cylindrical pastel does not compress the paste and the pastel dries naturally in open air. The lifespan of a piece of work is guaranteed by the quality of the pastel, but also by the quality of the substrate. If a lot of overlapping is performed, it is preferable to fix between layers. Avoid, however, fixing the final layer too heavily, as the original quality of tones will be lost.
Please note, colors may vary.
