Northwest Pastel Society
The Northwest Pastel Society (NPS) was incorporated on October 5, 1988 as a nonprofit corporation dedicated to promoting pastel as a fine art medium. Through NPS open juried international exhibitions, juried members' exhibitions, workshops, and quarterly newsletters and meetings (except in summer) members enjoy sharing knowledge, learning new painting techniques, and passing on published information. Membership has grown from a small nucleus of Seattle area artists, to a membership drawn from throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Air Hardening Modeling Clay

by Das

(2 Reviews)

Hi , I have used the product for a number of wildlife sculptures I have made starting with a paper mache and wire basic shape and adding DAS to sculpt in fine detail. I have not experienced any bad cracking and the finished sculptures can be sanded and finished in acrylics and varnish or a faux metalic paint. They are strong and durable.
