What is "pastel"?
Pastel is a type of art tool made from a stick of pigment mixed with a small amount of a sticky substance. It is used for drawing and coloring, providing soft, vibrant colors and a smooth texture. Pastels come in various forms, including soft pastels, which are rich and blendable, and oil pastels, which have a creamier consistency. They can be applied to paper or other surfaces and are popular for their ease of use and ability to create detailed, colorful artwork.
