Caran d'Ache Neopastels

Comments about Caran d'Ache Neopastels:

I've been using oil pastels for my portraiture exclusively since 2014 and these are the only brand I use now. They have nice creaminess, great color vibrancy, and great lightfastness. Plus they have a great price compared to the other quality premium brand they compete with.

I continue to be impressed with these oil pastels. They cooperate well on every surface and stage I've tried. Did a cloud study with Neo ash grey and cream and some Van Goghs and Senneliers. Very pleasurable blending and layering. I hear they are not temperature dependent, so I plan to get a set to take to the beach house this summer, for plein air. Rich pigment.

Comments about Caran d'Ache Neopastels:

These have been my go-to pastels for many, many years. They are consistently great. The color range is very good, and they are a little less oily, and less expensive than the Senneliers. I use both, and definitely think they are the best available.

I'm an abstract painter and not a pastel artist - so I've only used a couple different brands and WOW! I love these Neopastels! So smooth! Rich pigment! I like to lay down color and use my fingers to blend and move the color around and these are amazing! I've used them for abstract portraits. You can have a lot of fun layering color. I use Sakura Specialist pastels to compliment/mix. I prefer these two brands over Sennelier; Daler-Rowney and Van Gogh.

I am a Sennelier and Holbein painter but I make good use of some Neopastel darks and muted hues. They happen to be handy but the quality vary from one stick to another. They sometimes bloom or dry. Knowing that, be vigilant when you receive your shipment. Otherwise, enjoy their great coverage!
