This is an eye opener, never thought of trying to keep the pastels clean while I work, mine are in trays and as I pick one for the work in progress it gets transfered to another little tray.

Then they all end up in jumble and dirty and as i need each one again i draw on my shirt to clean it.

Can you tell i'm a beginner?

Can I ask a question regarding brands while i'm here?

I'm about to invest in a set of portrait colours (72 i think). I've tried Schimke, which I love, Sennelier which are alittle too soft for me and Rembrandts which I find too hard and a bit gritty. I can order a lovely set of Unisons but.....I can't get any here to try one first.

How do they compare in this list, I've read all the articles I can find and I know Sharon prefers them , but why?

Carolyn.

ps I might have to get someone to post me just one Unison
