NuPastel colors in Mr. Whitaker's demo?

[Minh Thong]

First, I'd like to thank those of you who maintain the Forum and also those who graciously take the time to answer questions for students.

I'm a relative beginner in art and I've been racking my brain to duplicate the NuPastel colors found in Mr. Whitaker's pastel demonstration on his website. I happened to see this same discussion in another thread, yet the actual NuPastel colors were not given and since the most recent post within that thread was last month, I thought I'd ask again.

I know this might seem silly, but the reason it's important to me is that I've tried to duplicate the color of Mr. Whitaker's demo and have only come close using four shades of Conte. I just haven't been able to nail it with NuPastel, despite a number of trials and even developing a 'monochromatic color chart' with the earth NuPastels. I prefer working in the latter because they are, for me, easier to sharpen and will hold edges better.

Does anyone know which NuPastel numbers were used?

Thanks again everyone for a HUGELY educational Forum.
