Caran d'Ache Neopastel Artist Oil Pastels – Set of 48

A 48-colour Neopastel palette provides enough colour range for developing portraits, landscapes, still life and abstract artwork without working from a full assortment. The soft oil pastel format produces rich, opaque marks and allows colours to be blended directly on the surface.

The round shape also gives you several ways to work: use the point for details, the bevelled edge for controlled strokes and the flat side for broader applications. Neopastel can also be layered, blended and dissolved with white spirit for different surface effects. (carandache.com)
