Pigment Tokyo has held many workshops that can be experienced by parents and children as a special summer vacation special project.

And this summer, a new "pastel making" has joined.

Even if it is for children, the contents and materials are authentic. In the "Crayon Creation" held during Golden Week, it is possible to experience the unique parent -child workshop, such as the moment when adults are more enthusiastic than their children, and some children give advice to adults.

Do you know what kind of pastel is sometimes?

The word "pastel tone" may be used when expressing a low saturation, bright and pale color, but it is not a pale color = pastel.

Crayon and pastel, the biggest difference lies in its establishment.

The crayon is made by kneading the pigment with the constitution pigment and the roles of the fixing agent and the paraffin.

In other words, once you draw it, it will be firmly established on the screen, but at the same time it is not suitable for delicate paint expressions between colors.

If you look closely, the oil pastel can be seen with viscosity. When I rubbed it with my finger and mixed it, the pastel spread the particles, giving the impression of a soft color.

Pastel, on the other hand, is mainly composed of pigments, constitution pigments, and only a small amount of water -based stemper. Therefore, it is not possible to draw a strong line of edges like crayons, but after drawing, it is possible to express a light color that makes use of the color of the ground by stretching it thinly with your finger.

In addition, pastel makes use of its characteristics and is good at mixing coloring on the screen, so "What color will it be if you mix yellow and blue?" "If you mix red and green ...?" You can also experience things like mixing paint.

It looks like it is drawn with pastel and lightly bleeds with a water brush, or the color is repeated from above.

In addition to these features, compare them with the crayon of commercially available school teaching materials, buy a favorite pigment to make pastel of your favorite color, use it with watercolor paint ... By trying various things, you may surely find the goodness of pastel from your child's perspective.
