Description
Derwent’s uniquely formulated pastel shades paints are soft and light. They can be layered for a brighter finish, without dissolving previously dried layers. Alternatively, these contemporary, light shades can be applied delicately for a soft, light wash, or used with our Inktense and Metallic paint sets to create dramatic effects. This compact, self-contained set contains 12 pastel paint pans, a mini waterbrush, five mixing palettes and a sponge to clean your waterbrush.
“6 – Good, 7 – Very Good, 8 – Excellent. Derwent uses the Blue Wool test (ISO 105) to evaluate lightfastness. Lightfastness refers to the chemical stability of a pigment under long exposure to light. A scale of 1-8 is obtained, with values of 6 or higher being considered to be highly lightfast and, under museum conditions, will not fade for 100+ years.”
