Blend and shade pastels with precision using ultra-soft pony hair
Pony hair brushes move pigment without disturbing the paper's tooth, essential when you're blending soft pastel or charcoal and need control without compromising the surface. Sennelier designed Le Pastelliste brushes specifically for this work, selecting exceptionally soft pony hair that captures loose pigment particles and redistributes them smoothly across your composition. The hair's natural flexibility responds to varying pressure, letting you build gradual transitions or soften edges without grinding pigment into the paper fibers.
Angular-cut tips provide versatility within a single brush. Use the broad edge for sweeping atmospheric effects and background blending; rotate to the narrow edge for detail work around focal points or precise transitions between adjacent colors. This eliminates constant brush switching during active blending sessions.
Professional pastelists rely on dedicated blending brushes rather than fingers or tortillons when they need uniform, controlled results. These brushes dust away excess pigment, smooth transitions, and refine edges while maintaining the characteristic surface quality that makes pastel work distinctive. The soft pony hair won't scratch delicate pastel papers or disturb underlying layers you've already established.
