About:

I’m in love with painting from my childhood while also attending the art school when I was a teenager. But it was only aquarelle, charcoal and oil available for me back then.

But a lot of times I was aiming my sight to the pastels, although I was not able to get quality medium I was fascinated with this material. Several years ago, I had a chance to watch a Youtube video of Les Darlow. And with my existing pastels I was not able to create anything similar to Les’ creations, until I passed through the statement that it was only possible to create something magical with high quality professional pastels Unison.

As soon as I had a chance, I purchased a 72 starter set of Unison Colors. This was a start of my fabulous journey to the world of pastels.

My favorite subject is nature and especially flowers with their variety of forms and tints. It’s a great pleasure to look for the colors in the reach variety of pallet of Unison Color to create a wonderful “portrait” of the flower as each of them has its own appearance.

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.
