Soft Pastels
Soft pastels are a great candidate for DIY watercolor because they’re not super waxy, so they’re easier to turn into powder than typical colored pencils. You can shave off just a little bit for a single session, then mix it with binder and test it right away. It’s a fun way to explore unusual color effects from materials you might already own.
Pros
- +Less waxy than many colored pencils, so easier to powder
- +Great for experimenting with custom colors
Cons
