and all are equally good unlike nupastel whose quality is uneven

beautiful soft cream sticks and they are all equally good unlike nupastel whose quality is uneven. It's really a set of samplers. The sticks are quite small, 1 inch each, and rest on 1/3 Nupastel. I'm deducting a star because the coloring isn't as good as you'd expect from 72 sticks. Some blues, greens, and reds are hard to discern, and whites and light tones are few. But overall excellent value for money. Any beginner will be happy with the kit plus a few custom colors.

  • pastels

  • So far so good

A GOOD START FOR BEGINNERS ONLY. Lots of colors to try your hand at pastel painting without the expense of an "artist" and good coverage. So you know how pastel works and if you want to paint/draw. I also have "artist quality" pastels, but that's only because I bought them 1/3 to 1/2 cheaper. 2 actual costs. I love the pencil and I like this way of drawing with pastels so once I'm good enough I'll try an art class if I ever get there because they're super super expensive For example, a box can…

Pros
  • Art, drawing and craft supplies
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for seniors
