{"product_id":"staedtler-mars-lumograph-pastel-pencil","title":"Mars® Lumograph Pastel Pencil","description":"\u003cp\u003ePastel pencils solve the control problem that soft pastels create. Staedtler Mars Lumograph Pastel Pencils deliver concentrated pigment in pencil form, giving you the blendability of traditional pastels with the precision of graphite. The wood-cased format keeps your hands clean while you work, and that focused tip handles everything from crisp hatching lines to subtle value transitions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis six-pencil set focuses on classic drawing colors: sepia light and dark, umber, sanguine dry, and white, plus a colorless blender. These earth tones work naturally for figure studies and portraits, building form through warm shadows and highlights rather than relying on graphite's cooler values. High pigment concentration means colors show up immediately without heavy pressure, maintaining that characteristic pastel softness while the pencil format prevents the dusty mess of stick pastels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included blender pencil smooths transitions between colors and softens edges without adding pigment. Layer colors directly, blend them together for atmospheric effects, or combine hatching with blending for drawings that show both precision and painterly quality. Portrait artists particularly value how these warm tones capture skin values more naturally than graphite ever could.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Staedtler","offers":[{"title":"6 piece set","offer_id":47973944230117,"sku":"28924","price":11.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/staedtler-mars-lumograph-pastel-pencil","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
