* Some pastel artists protect their finished pieces by spraying them with a fixative. A
pastel fixative is an aerosol varnish which can be used to help stabilize the small charcoal or pastel particles on a
pastel portrait painting. It cannot prevent smearing entirely without dulling and darkening the bright and fresh colors of
pastels. It is also toxic, therefore it requires careful use. For these reasons, artist pastels and painting gallery avoid its use except in cases where the pastel has been overworked so much that the surface will no longer hold any more pastel. The fixative will restore the "tooth" and more pastel can be applied on top. It is the tooth of the painting surface that holds the pastels, not a fixative. Abrasive supports avoid or minimize the need to apply further fixative in this way. Glassine (paper) is used by pastel painters to protect artwork which is being stored or transported. Some good quality books of pastel papers also include glassine to separate pages. |
