What Art Supplies Should The Pastel Artist Bring?

If you are painting in pastel, bring all the pastels that you have and the pastel papers that you like to paint on – plus a few lightweight drawing boards i.e., made of foam core or gator board or any lightweight material.

 Albert likes to pastel on the mounted U-Art sanded paper, both 500 and 600 grits.

He prefers the sizes no smaller than 9×12” and as large as 16×20 or definitely no larger than 18×24” The U-Art sanded papers and other very fine pastel surfaces can be purchased directly from Dakota
