10% Off Blue Earth Sets

The pastels are very soft and have a rectangle shape allowing work to be completed with an edge or as you would with a round pastel. The pastels are shorter than the traditional round pastels but are chunkier and have excellent covering power. The sets come in an innovative foam pallet which allows you to peel back a layer of foam to expose the pastels for working.
