Questions? Here’s everything you need to know
Simple answers before your first masterpiece.
How do I use AquaBloom Pastels—dry, wet, or both?
Use them dry for smooth drawing and blending, then add a damp brush to activate watercolor. You can mix both techniques in the same artwork.
Do I need special paper for the watercolor effect?
They work on most papers, but thicker paper (like mixed media or watercolor paper) handles water best and reduces warping.
Are they messy like traditional pastels or paints?
They’re designed to be low-mess with less dust than chalk pastels. When using water, start with a small amount for clean control.
Are AquaBloom Pastels suitable for kids and beginners?
Yes—kids can use them like crayons, and beginners love how forgiving blending and water activation feel. Adults and artists use them for layering and effects.
What’s included in the set?
You’ll receive a 48-color AquaBloom Pastels set with a wide range of bright and soft tones for sketching, shading, and watercolor washes.
