PITT Pastel Pencil 280 Burnt Umber

Faber-Castell PITT Artists' Pastel Pencils, with their oil-free pastel leads, are used by artists as the perfect complement to pastel crayons for elaborating fine details. Many artists who enjoy pastel techniques and their versatility have opted to use these special pencils to avoid the dirty hands and coloured dust that accompany regular pastels. PITT Pastel Pencils have a very compact lead which is economical to use. The lead contains a high level of pigment, making the pencils ideally suited both to drawing lines and shading, as well as blending and merging into delicate colour transitions. The colour selection in this range places a particular emphasis on the muted shades and earth tones that are especially important for pastel drawing.
