Stabilo CarbOthello Pastel Pencils  Set of 60 in Wooden Box

As I mentioned in another post, I am planning to do a series of portraits and other drawings in pastel and red chalk:

Jacki Kellum Is Returning to An Art Medium and Subject Matter from Her Past – Drawings of Children in Pastels and Red Chalk

I have a couple of sets of pastels, but for portrait work and other detailed drawings, pastel pencils are good for laying out the initial sketches.

I have several sets of pastels, and I am expecting a set of Blue Earth Pastels to arrive this week.
