| | Pastel Lesson - Fine Art Instruction |
| | Pastels are great to use - they offer the best of both painting and drawing. | | | Often, pastel was used to make studies for paintings in oil. | | | If you decide to work with pastel pencils, you will be able to work in more detail, almost like colored pencils, with line and shading/cross-hatching, etc., like regular drawing, by using the stump to smooth and blend together the marks made with your pencils, like the example of Rosalba Carriera, in the link below. |

| | Use of the pastel medium provides an artist with the enjoyment of having a rainbow of colors to work from and knowing many effects possible with other mediums can also be achieved with pastel. | | | Artists have used the pastel medium for hundreds of years and many of these art works still exist fresh and colorful as the day they were applied. | | | Pastel paintings are very durable, permanent and, as many of the famous masterworks show, the color brilliancy will last indefinitely with proper care. |

| | International Association of Pastel Societies (IAPS) - Convention 2001 Report: Panel Discussions |
| | Recently artists have begun to frame their pastels much like oil paintings, using no mat but adding a spacer between the frame and the glass so that the painting is not in contact with the glass. | | | Many artists use the passé-partout method of storing paintings in which the matted pastel is fitted with a piece of glass or Plexiglas matching the outside measurement of the painting, and taped together with a strip of acid-free framers tape. | | | This is one of the few places where our panel agreed unanimously: a pastel painting should never come in direct contact with the glass. |

| | Another consideration is that any paper (or surface) which might be used as a medium for pastel painting or drawing can itself form an integral element of the final work in that, for example, a piece of paper can be died by the application of a colored wash before beginning your pastel. | | | There are a lot of different kinds and grades of suitable paper: hand or machine-made, textured or smooth, and every artist must experiment with each of them, in order to find the precise sort which he or she feels will best convey her own artistic intent. | | | An artist who works in the medium of pastels is called a "Pastellist". |
