We dearest pastels. Nana has taught us to appreciate how beautiful and piece of cake information technology is to use them. We fifty-fifty keep them close so nosotros can use them for our nature periodical entries. I've had a few questions about what pastels our children use and where to purchase them. So, I went to the skillful – Nana! Below is a suggested list of resources. And farther down is our list of chalk pastel and acrylic lessons.

What type of chalk pastels to use?

The pastels our children apply (above) are Rembrandt. Nana says they are very skilful ones to starting time out with and are available at most fine art supply stores. She thinks yous tin fifty-fifty get them at your local Michael's Arts and crafts Store.

Handmade by Terri Ludwig. Nana says these are the "well-nigh precious to use." Our children used a few select sticks of Nana's to create a Tornado in Pastels. Nana'southward Terri Ludwig gear up is pictured below. Cute!

Dick Blick. This art supply company makes their own fix of pastels you can order online. A set of 48 colors is only $10.39. Click over and lookout man online videos. A great resource!

Nana's communication – start modest: The pupil form Alphacolor gear up is a good starter for $10.00. This gear up includes the basic colors to try out. These colors can be layered to achieve any color the educatee wants to use.

What type of newspaper is best for chalk pastels?

Our very showtime pastel pictures were made on a coil of newsprint we had close by. But for the colors to blend well, good paper is suggested. Nana says a pad of Canson newspaper is available at Michael's.

How do I shop chalk pastels? How do I clean them?

The small set up of pupil starter pastels come up in a plastic sleeve for storage. The large bin pictured at the height of the post Nana purchased at Michael's a few years ago. She says, "I call up information technology was supposed to be used to store beads in for necklace and bracelet making – when that was all the rage. It just looked similar it would exist good for pastels and then I bought it."

After we'd been using pastels for about ii years, Nana gifted us with a wooden box with drawers for storage.

Details in her post, Soft Chalk Pastels: Storage and Cleaning. We constrict our pastel set under the kitchen tabular array for easy access.

Nana'southward communication for first with pastels

There is no need to brand a large pastel buy or to get a storage container until you accept tried pastels, are certain the children will enjoy using them and if mamas want to put up with the mess. Recollect, pastels are messy. Blessedly messy. We go on a parcel of baby wipes close by when we use them.

Where do y'all store finished pictures?

Honestly, our firm is decorated with children's pictures. Yous'll find them on the chalkboard, the refrigerator and adorning the walls.

Yous tin can also find finished pastel pictures:

in our nature journals – the finished pictures just rub off a bit on the back of the next picture.
in a binder – my daughter created a binder for finished pictures. She puts a fleck of wax paper between each i.

I thought that nosotros could take a break from our wonderful pastel lessons and go explore a new medium…acrylic paint! I accept painted with acrylics for many years…using them to pigment wall murals, tee-shirts…the pigment is a very forgiving medium. You can make a small investment at your local craft store and become enough bones, primary colors to mix whatever other color or hue that your heart desires!

Nana'south Story

Main Artist – a story of Nana and a tour of artwork in her house

For u.s., using pastels is sheer joy. Nosotros've found they are swell for making nature journal entries.

"Ok, I accept to tell you, I am Not an art instructor… non even close. The most my kids ever do with art is mayhap a hands on history lesson with coloring pages and some small-scale drawing. I take now ventured into teaching them art WITH NANA! We completed lesson one in pastels this morning, and information technology was fabulous! She is inspiring a love of art in a family unit that knows aught of it! Thank you so much for sharing your precious mother with united states all." ~ Lori Lange, homeschool mom of v @ Abnormal Herd

The practical aspects of a mess: Nosotros ever have baby wipes close by to wipe hands. We habiliment something we don't mind getting stained or don a smock.
