Many pastel artists use Conté Carrés Pastel Crayons because of the selection of pigments, the lightfastness, the exceptional brightness and the purity of colours they provide.
Conte Carré Crayons are baked with kaolin clay and are firmer than soft pastels, which means they work well on smooth paper and textured surfaces.
Artists can work using the flat edge of the pastel to lay down colour quickly, or you can use the pastel upright on the angles to create fine lines and sketching techniques.
