This Pentel Oil Pastel set of 50 contains long-lasting and fade resistant colours with lovely blending properties. These professional grade oil pastels are suitable for artists of all abilities. If you\u2019re a beginner, why not start with a smaller set and build your confidence? Or, if you\u2019re a more experienced artist, then unleash your creativity and experiment with the full range of colours!\n\nThese pastels apply smoothly and blend easily using cotton buds, fingers or tortillon for subtle shades, tints and colour mixtures. They are ideal for most types of paper (including pastel, water colour, cartridge, craft etc.) as well as canvas, oil and acrylic boards.\n\nPentel Oil Pastels are also great to use in conjunction with watercolours, oil paints and soft pastels. Their slow drying time means you can work on a piece for several weeks. Experiment to discover your favourite combination.
