PanPastel 10-Color Wildlife Painting Set: Curated by Jason Morgan
The PanPastel Wildlife Painting Set is a professional-grade collection curated by world-renowned wildlife artist Jason Morgan. This set is specifically engineered to provide the essential tonal foundations and high-chroma accents required for realistic animal and nature illustration. By focusing on a combination of deep structural values and vibrant natural tones, this kit enables artists to capture the organic textures of fur, feathers, and habitats with the speed and fluidity of a dry-painting medium.
Key Features and Artistic Benefits
- Expertly Curated Wildlife Palette: Features a deliberate selection of 10 colors, including Burnt Sienna Extra Dark for structural depth and Diarylide Yellow for sun-drenched highlights on coats and plumage.
- Intense Tonal Contrast: The inclusion of Neutral Gray Extra Dark 2 and Black provides the high-contrast range necessary to create a three-dimensional form and lifelike anatomical structure.
- Organic Blending Consistency: The ultra-soft, low-dust pigment formula is ideal for creating the soft, out-of-focus backgrounds and smooth color transitions common in professional wildlife portraiture.
- High Pigment Concentration: Formulated with a maximum load of lightfast pigments and minimal binder, ensuring that the natural colors of your subjects remain vibrant and archival.
- Specialized Sofft Tooling: Equipped with an Angle Slice Sponge and No.3 Painting Knife, allowing for broad anatomical blocking as well as refined, high-precision detailing.
Application and Technical Guidelines
- Structural Underpainting: Utilize Burnt Sienna Shade and Neutral Gray Extra Dark 2 to establish the foundational anatomy of the animal. The erasable nature of PanPastel allows for the correction of proportions before adding permanent details.
- Texture and Fur Rendering: Use the Sofft Angle Slice Sponge to apply broad directional washes that simulate the underlying flow of fur. The unique edge of the sponge is excellent for carving out muscle groups and broad highlights.
- Precision Detailing: The No.3 Painting Knife with covers is the technical choice for rendering sharp details such as whiskers, eye highlights with Titanium White, and the intricate textures of beaks or claws.
- Layering and Mixed Media: These colors are perfectly suited as a base for colored pencil or pastel pencil work. By blocking in the large areas with PanPastel, artists can save significant time before finishing with fine-line hair details.
