The Carré couleur, with its unique shape, allows for versatile use: precise lines thanks to the edges, powdered backgrounds and flat tints thanks to the edge. Its velvety texture and richness of pigments allow you to mark values, provide contrasts and delimit areas. Chosen by the greatest artists, Picasso, Degas, or Delacroix, the Carrés Conté à Paris have always been the reference in pastel. They can be used on all types of grained papers (mainly half-tone papers), canvas, or various supports with roughness. The Carrés can be mixed with the other items in the range: soft pastels, pastel pencils, Carrés are compatible with oil and acrylic paints.
