The Design Team is SO loving the PanPastels!   You will too. 

We are Proud to be partnering with 
ColorFin LLC PanPastel, based in Pennsylvania USA.

Working with PanPastel is a dream come true for me as an Art company owner.   The products are the finest quality and provide our customers with inspiration & ability to create.

 Watch this and more videos to learn techniques and find the amazing versatility of PanPastel.  Rich fabulous color with ease of application makes for the perfect medium! 





Easy to Use - Blend, Layer & Apply like Paint
PanPastel Colors offer many advantages:
  • Super-blendable: the pan format and their ultra-soft formulation means that PanPastel Colors blend beautifully for an infinite palette of colors.
  • Paintable: for the first time ever artists can apply and mix (dry) pastel color like paint
  • Instant: no drying or preparation time needed. Simply lift the color using a Sofft Tool to start painting immediately
  • Easy: no solvents, water or other special mediums are required – use PanPastel colors “dry” for the benefits of wet paint without the hassle.
  • Erasable: PanPastel is a very forgiving medium to use – use any eraser to correct mistakes or remove the color. An eraser can also be used to create highlights and for subtractive drawing techniques..
  • Versatile: compatible with other artist’s media and almost any art & craft surface (even thin delicate papers as there is no bleed-through or buckling because PanPastel is dry color).

  • Control: using Sofft Tools it is easy to control the color, and to achieve a wide variety of marks and effectst
  • Very low dust: for a cleaner, more pleasant working environment. Generating less waste.

We are happy to say that a set of PanPastel will be awarded to one fortunate follower in our random drawing at the end of September.  Commenting daily will give you more chances to win!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
