Derwent’s uniquely formulated pastel shades paints are soft and light. They can be layered for a brighter finish, without dissolving previously dried layers.  Alternatively, these contemporary, light shades can be applied delicately for a soft, light wash, or used with our Inktense and Metallic paint sets to create dramatic effects. This compact, self-contained set contains 12 pastel paint pans, a mini waterbrush, five mixing palettes and a sponge to clean your waterbrush.
