Make A Bold Artistic Statement With Rich Red Color
SoHo Urban Artist Handmade Soft Pastel Block in Red delivers rich fully pigmented color with an exceptionally soft velvety feel. Its wide block shape makes it easy to cover more surface than a traditional slim pastel, whether you are toning paper, building broad areas of color, or creating expressive painterly marks. The fine smooth consistency allows dense color to go down with very little pressure.
Handcrafted for artists who enjoy layering and blending, this soft pastel works beautifully for everything from broad strokes to striking red accents and smooth color transitions. The bold expressive tone of Red is especially useful for creating dramatic sunsets, colorful floral compositions, and richly colored still life drawings. Its strong color also works well for capturing ripe fruit, adding warmth to architectural scenes, and creating eye-catching focal points in abstract artwork. Red blends beautifully with oranges, pinks, and deeper burgundy tones for smooth transitions and greater visual depth. Each block is individually handmade, so slight variations in size and shape are part of its unique character. The pastel measures approximately 0.56" x 1.3" x 1.53" and comes in a protective foam-padded box for convenient storage and easy access.
