What is the difference between Conté and soft pastels?
1 Answer
The difference between Conté and soft pastels is in their properties. Soft pastels feature more pigment and less binder than Conté pastels. As a result, they produce more vibrant colors, but they are more fragile and prone to breakage. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of art from some of the world's top galleries and dealers.
