Seccorell Art Smudge Pastels, Rondo

A great set for getting started with Seccorell, the Rondo set contains everything you need to start exploring your artistic skills, while allowing space to add extra pastel sticks down the track.  The round box is made of cardboard and covered with paper made of sustainable cocoa bean shells.

The Ronda set contains: removable tub with rubbing block, cleaning brush (natural bristles), eraser sticks; inside 8 colour sticks (basic colours), 2 cotton pads (not in picture); offers space for 24 colour sticks after removing the bottom insert.

Seccorell offer a unique drawing technique that forms a bridge between the watercolour and pastel techniques and requires neither water nor fixative.

Developed by watching children in Waldorf schools use their pencil shavings for shading, these unique pastel smudge sticks are used by grating the stick on the rubbing block and then smudging with your fingers. The effect is both delicate and intense, and can be used on a variety of surfaces including paper, wood and even eggs at Easter time.
