This compact set is a
collaboration between Unison Pastels and the Belfast-based artist wildlife
artist Emma Colbert. It includes 30 half sticks which cover every tone you will
need to create many different types of animal portraits.
Row 1 includes the all-important light range vital for painting white animals,
but also useful for highlights on every colour of animal. Avoiding white as
your main highlight will add more depth and realism to your paintings.
Row 2 gives you a full range of
cool shadow tones also useful for the highlights on dark or black animals.
Row 3 provides a range of vibrant
warm tones useful for highlights on brown animals, right through to a selection
of fleshy pinks vital for inner ears, noses, and wet tongues!
Rows 4 and 5 include an extensive
selection of warm and cool browns from light to dark which will cover the vast
array of brown shades we see in every animal from dogs to horses and even
wildlife.
This set is neatly comprised of
Emma Colbert's favourite shades for animal painting and whether you use the
colours directly as they are, or layer them up together, you will not struggle
to find any animal's palette in this selection.
