Burnt Umber (Tint 4) With generations of experience in the art of making pastels, Daler-Rowney have perfected the balance of the finest quality pigments, chalk and china clay to produce almost 200 colour tints and a comprehensive range of pastels. The rich, deep colour, texture and immediacy of Artists" Soft Pastels are ideal for all kinds of drawing and painting as well as quick colour sketched in preparatory work. The unique Grande range is made using the same formula as the soft pastels but has a larger diameter, making it more robust to use and ideal for covering large surfaces.
