- Unison Colour Light & Shade 36 Pastel Set – Master Light and Shadow This set of 36 pastels, created in collaboration between Unison Colour and Associate Artist Emma Colbert, is designed to help you steer your work out of monochrome and into colour. It is the perfect tool for understanding light and shadow and for adding depth to your artwork. The Artist, Emma Colbert, on the Set: ‘This set is designed for those wanting to steer their work out of the monochrome and into colour. It will help you see more values in your highlights, midtones and shadows. Combined with your existing collection this set will ensure you have the right shades and tints for every lighting.’ – Emma Colbert What can the Light & Shade set be used for? This set is an invaluable aid for any artist wanting to improve their control over colour and value: Value Studies: The set is perfect for practicing values (tonal values), which is a fundamental skill in realistic art.Tinting and Shading Colours: Use the light and dark pastels in the set to tint (lighten) and shade (darken) any colour from your own pastel collection, creating an endless array of new hues.Creating Depth and Form: With the right light and dark shades, you can create a sense of three-dimensionality and form in your work. Pastel Tips for This Set: Create a Value Chart: Before you begin, try creating a scale for each colour in the set from lightest to darkest. This will help you understand the value of each pastel and use them more effectively.Warm Lights, Cool Shadows: Notice that the set includes both warm and cool light and dark shades. Use the warm lights to highlight areas in sunlight and the cool darks to create shadows. This simple rule will instantly add realism to your work.Avoid Pure Black or White: Try using the darkest blues or browns in the set instead of black, and the palest yellows or pinks instead of white. This will make your colours more vibrant and natural. Watch the video where Emma Colbert explains why she chose these specific colours for the set and how she uses them in her work!
