## Description

From the manufacturer An unparalleled know-how since 1795 The Frenchman Nicolas Jacques Conté created the pencil as we know it. Used by masters such as Delacroix, Degas and Picasso, Conté à Paris pastel and charcoal pencils revolutionized art and are considered very high-end drawing products. CONTE A PARIS Pastel Pencils The exceptional diameter of the Crayons pastel de Conté à Paris offers true freedom of stroke and an unparalleled feel. Pastel pencil is the ideal complement to soft pastel. Its lead is slightly harder and less pigmented, it will be preferred to soft pastels or squares when working requiring precision and finesse in small and medium formats. Unlike soft pastels, it is recommended not to use the pastel pencils in successive additions of color, but applying in the manner of a patchwork the pure colors side by side. Squares Sketch TALE A PARIS The range of Squares Esquisse de Conté à Paris is composed of 14 different shades: blood, grey, bistre as well as 3 graduations of white and black. Very soft in texture, these squares are made from natural pigments (iron oxide, carbon black, titanium dioxide), clay (kaolin) and a binder (cellulose ether). Square Color CONTE A PARIS The Conté à Paris Color Squares allow both precise and nervous work thanks to the edges of the sticks. Draftsmen will exploit the possibilities of flat work by using the slice of the square to mark values. Some technical tips The wash Using a brush of the type synthetic flat brush with a little water, you will get a more or less clear wash with a difference in graduation depending on the tone of the bottom. The rehaut The gum crumb of bread or the white square allow you to create highlights on dark areas. With the gum you will soften a tone by rubbing it slightly. With the white square you will get a clearer and sharper stroke. The progressive mixing Apply two colors on top of each other, they will mix. Blend this mixture with your finger: you will get a gradient of the resulting color. Blending Use the tenderness of the square by spreading it on your finger or with stumps or tortillions. You will get different tones more or less clear. The Fade Soft blend of shades that will allow you to achieve a gradient from darkest to lightest in shades of grey. You can achieve this effect with your finger. Cross hatching Make strokes by crossing them, with different shades. New shades will appear at the intersections of the different strokes: you will get gradients, textured surfaces. The trait Vary the effects of your traits - slice flat = broad gradient line - square edge = fine line. - flat end = continuous line The smear Allows you to mix colours by layering. For this, cover your surface with a dark color, on which you will apply lighter colors. You will get a nice contrast. Pointillism This technique will allow you to create an "optical" mixture, letting appear small dots on your support by stamping the tip of your square. Use multiple colors to have a better effect.

Review: About the best you can get. - The usual Conte a Paris standard of excellence. Great value for money.
Review: Great for finer detail in a pastel drawing! - Able to add finer details to a soft pastel drawing and as the pencils are also pastel, they are blendable too! The tin is a little loose and not sturdy so be careful if standing up on its side, otherwise great quality!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice tin full of a good colour combination
*by J***N on 17 February 2021*

Gorgeous tin full of great Colour combinations. Being new to pastels I opted to buy these instead of the more expensive brands as I didn't want to pay a huge amount of money on something I might not use often enough to warrant a big spend. All the colours are beautiful and I use them for whimsical faces rather than watercolor. I used a good quality pastel paper as they don't do well on cheaper grade paper as they end up looking too grainy and don't blend well. overall they are a good quality and easy to get the hang of.
