About:

I love the flexibility of working with Unison pastels the wide range of effects that can be achieved using different techniques means I can keep experimenting with different ideas and subject matters. Colour is SO important to me and Unison Colour pastels provide not only a glorious palette to choose from, but a creamy softness and richness of pigment that is a joy to work with; the tactile intimacy of working directly with the colour brings a uniquely personal element to each piece I create.

    Acceptance – The Pastel Society

    Being elected a member of The Pastel Society has been a long held dream and the result of a lot of hard work over several years. It is a huge honour and I am very excited for what lies ahead.

Colour Chart Guidance

We believe the colours in our web based colour chart are a faithful representation of our pastel range. But with any colours portrayed on the internet, there’s a whole heap of variables which mean that what you see, may not be what we see. That said, there’s some things that can be done to mitigate some of the variance.

Mobile phone and tablet screens tend to be pretty good for colour, so they’re always worth using, when viewing our colour chart.

We hate to say it, but cheaper computer displays, including laptops, can be rather hit and miss, in both colour and contrast, so they might not reveal the depth of the colour, as well as the true tone.

If you’re really keen on getting your computer up to speed on colour representation, you can use a calibration device to reach your display's fullest potential.

With all that said, if you think we’re way off the mark with any of the colours then, by all means let us know, and we’ll give it another shot.
