What’s in a name? ponders Juliet in Shakespspeare’s famous play. As it turns out quite a lot actually. For a start it would be a pity to call a rose a clivia, for example. Imagine the disappointment on Valentine’s Day. So when Dutch paint manufacturer Royal Talens came out with the Van Gogh brand of paints they had to meet certain expectations.
Van Gogh is a brand for the modern artist with an eye for quality. The Van Gogh soft pastels have a strikingly high colour transfer. These creamy, artists’ pastels have outstanding warmth and colour strength. It is possible to work cleanly as the pastels give off little dust. Due to the hard structure, the pastel is ideal for drawing portraits and landscapes and yet they are extremely soft and blendable in their application. The square form is highly suited for detailed work (by using the point) as well as for colouring large areas (by holding the pastel flat). The colours can be used directly, built up in coloured layers, blended with a cloth, or diluted with mineral spirits to create rich, transparent washes or can also be used with water for watercolour effects. They can also be used in combination with other dry or wet media to produce myriad effects.
