Pastel Supports
Pastel supports need to provide a "tooth" for the pastel to adhere and hold the pigment in place. Supports include:
- laid paper (e.g. Ingres; Canson Mi Teintes)
- abrasive supports (e.g. with a surface of finely ground pumice or marble dust)

Famous quotes containing the word supports:
“The rebel can never find peace. He knows what is good and, despite himself, does evil. The value which supports him is never given to him once and for all—he must fight to uphold it, unceasingly.”
