Pastels Without Paper [Three Acrylic Surfaces]
Here are three toothy acrylic mixtures you can easily apply to panel or board to expand your pastel art whether you use PanPastel, stick pastel, or variety of pencils.
- Absorbent Ground on canvas board – feel free to tint this mixture with GOLDEN Fluid Acrylics
- Pastel Ground on clear acrylic sheet - we masked an area for nice clean edges (and a satisfying tape removal)
- Micaceous Iron Oxide – we love this self-leveling surface with a subtle metallic sheen
