Unison Colour Portrait Palette Handcrafted Soft Pastels Set of 18

Portrait work depends on subtle changes in colour, temperature and value. A dedicated portrait palette makes it easier to develop skin tones and move between highlights, mid-tones, shadows and reflected colour without relying on a large collection of unrelated shades.

The 18-colour selection keeps the working palette focused while providing enough variation for blending and layering. It can be used for portrait studies, figure drawing, facial studies and expressive pastel painting.
