The final marks work better using a softer pastel than the earlier marks.<br /><br />I start with semi-hard pastels, go to a medium-soft Rembrandt set that I have and then finish with hand rolled Unisons and Mount Visions or with super soft pastels like my Sennelier half sticks. Sennelier sticks are so soft they'll go over almost anything without blending, especially on sanded paper. Schminke and Terry Ludwig work the same way.<br /><br />robertsloan2arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02598847116529877475noreply@blogger.com
