Explore Lush Green Landscapes With Rich Viridian Color
SoHo Urban Artist Handmade Soft Pastel Block in Viridian 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 cool green accents and smooth color transitions. The rich blue-green tone of Viridian is especially useful for creating lush woodland landscapes, shaded botanical compositions, and tranquil coastal scenery. Its distinctive cool green character also works well for capturing deep foliage, adding natural shadows to garden scenes, and creating subtle color variations in water reflections. Viridian blends beautifully with turquoise, earthy greens, and deeper blues for smooth transitions between sunlit vegetation and shaded areas. 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.
