Keep Smiling 12-Color Soft Pastels Se - HS 3012

Rich Pigmentation & Smooth Chalky Blending

Experience vibrant color rendering and smooth shading with the Keep Smiling 12-Color Soft Pastels Set. Designed for art students, hobbyists, and professional sketch artists, this compact pastel set provides essential primary and secondary tones needed to create rich gradients, dramatic shadows, and soft background washes.

Formulated with a soft, chalky texture, each square stick releases rich pigment with minimal pressure. The dual-purpose square design lets you use the sharp edges for precise linework and micro-details, while the flat sides cover broad areas quickly on pastel paper, textured cardstock, or canvas.
