TERRY LUDWIG CARDBOARD BOX OF 30 SOFT PASTELS BASIC PORTRAIT SELECTION

Cardboard box with 30 Terry Ludwig soft pastels in basic assorted colours for painting portraits.

100% handmade.

The composition contains a high concentration of pigment and a minimum amount of binder to achieve an exceptionally smooth and velvety pastel with high lightfastness.

Terry created this set in 2007 and it is one of the most popular. Colours included: A290, R420, R300, V380, A210, R280, A280, A130, R290, V370, R460, R270, A270, A120, N090, V070, R370, Y080, A170, R160, V480, N210, A150, N300, A230, R190, V470, N180, N240 and N230.

Its square shape allows the creation of broad, thick or thinner, controlled strokes.

The approximate size of each pastel is 3.81 x 1.27 x 1.27 cm. They may vary slightly in size and shape due to handmade production.

They are presented on a foam base inside the box so that they are always tidy and protected.

Terry Ludwig is an American painter who wanted to make his own pastels in 1995, frustrated by not finding the quality and uniformity of tone he needed. He ended up creating more than 500 colours, turning the brand with his own name into one of the highest quality and most prestigious in the world.
