Description
This is a description of a Blue Label Pastelmat Pad. It is a premium card surface made from a fine coating of cellulose fibers that has the ability to grab and hold multiple layers of even the softest pastels.

Pastelmat is ideal for use with all dry media - pastel sticks, PanPastel, pencils and charcoal. It is also water resistant, which means it can be used with wet media such as acrylics and watercolor for washes and mixed media techniques.
