Created with the mixed media artist in mind, the PIGMENT BARS are richly pigmented wax drawing bars and painting blocks have the creamy consistency of an oil bar and oil pastels.
The PIGMENT BARS are handmade with a blend of organic plant waxes and a mixture of natural earth pigments and micas. Some have different variations of metallic sheen and multiple pigments. Many of the pigment bars are duotone/tritone, meaning they have two sometimes three colors in one bar.
They have a beautiful, creamy consistency and deposit a lot of color. They can be layered over each other to create vibrant color mixes and blended with a blender bar, your fingers or a brush. They can be used over or under my handmade watercolors, as a resist with watercolor, with water soluble pencils and brushed through with stencils plus a plethora of mixed media techniques.
