Unison Colour Dark Half Stick Soft Pastel Set of 16 is a curated selection of dark-toned soft pastels designed for building depth, contrast and rich tonal structure in pastel artwork.

The palette provides a focused range for deep shadows, dark accents, atmospheric areas and stronger colour transitions.

Unison Colour soft pastels offer a soft, responsive medium that can be blended, layered or applied directly for expressive marks.

The half-stick format provides a practical working size for artists developing landscapes, portraits, still life, animal studies and other artwork where dark values and tonal contrast are important.

Dark values are essential for establishing depth, contrast and structure in pastel artwork. A dedicated dark palette allows artists to strengthen shadows and accents while retaining more colour variation than simply relying on black.

The half-stick format makes it practical to work across several dark colours, allowing artists to layer and blend different temperatures and intensities. It can be used alongside lighter pastel palettes for portraits, landscapes, still life and expressive studies.
