ARTEZA Soft Pastels for Artists, Set of 72 Chalk Pastels for Artists Sticks, Chalk Crayons Art Supplies for Drawing, Blending, Layering, and Shading

Great pastels!

Excellent quality and color variety for the price and amount of pastels! I love Arteza art products!

This is an excellent choice of pastel colors. They come in a variety of colors. The pigmentation is great and for the price you can’t beat it. I would highly recommend these.

Phenomenal quality. Arrived perfectly packaged in a very sturdy box. High level artists can use these. I love that the box stacks and has plastic handles to pull it out. It makes it a good size for bagging to go plein air. The protective papers keep the pastel dust off my hands. The little containers make it secure for a shelf on a plein air tripod.

I got this product on sale for about $35. Totally worth it. It’s such a great set of colors. I previously only had prisma nupastels 35 count and the limited color options were killer. This is pretty much every color I need and the texture and softness are excellent.

These pastels are nice. You get a nice assortment of colors and a relatively bigger pastel stick. Nicely packaged.I compared them to some Faber Castell soft pastels I had on hand and they were very similar. The Arteza seemed to have slightly less pigment, but the difference was negligible.I provided a quick image I produced using the Arteza pastels on pastel paper.

They have a great range of colors and while I didn't use them traditionally, it worked perfectly! I use them to add to a mixed media painting applying them with milk. They hold up to the process and blend well with my watercolors.

I couldn't afford Rembrandt or some other more expensive soft pastels, so I bought this set and am very pleased with my selection. Here is a picture of the Labrador I painted with them on Mi-tienes pastel paper by Canson.
