Unison Colour Associate Artist

About:

Teresa Seals is a passionate pasteller who only picked up a Unison four years ago but now cannot put them down!

She took A Level Art back in days of yore but, after gaining her degree in English Literature, disappeared into the world of soft fruit farming and then English teaching.  A few enforced snow days in 2018 (see her previous blog about the Beast from the East!) and a magazine article about Emma Colbert led to her first Unison purchase and now, a few thousand pastel strokes later, she is leaving the world of secondary English teaching to follow her dream of making art for a living!

Teresa is primarily a wildlife artist who works in a realist style. She loves using the natural pigments of Unison to depict the beauty around her.  She also creates human portraits and feels privileged to depict someone’s loved one in pastel.

Combining her teaching and pastelling skills, Teresa runs weekly classes, workshops, tuition and demonstrations for art groups.

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.
