I had a new medium arrive in the post, so I wanted to play with it as soon as possible. Neocolor II are water soluble wax pastels; there are 120 colours in total, but I decided to start with the tin of 30. As usual if I just want to see how things work quickly, I decided to work on a #8 manilla tag which I had previously covered with a light coat of white gesso and dried with a heat gun. I was delighted with the end result and will definitely be using these frequently in the future.
