€¢ Pastels are a type of chalk-like pigment that's been compressed into a little stick. It's almost like having a cross between colored pencils and chalk. Pastels come in my different brands and textures ranging from soft to hard and chalk to oil.
Contrary to what the name suggests, pastels are not all pastel-colored (i.e. Light colored). They do come in dark pigments as well as light pigments.
For the purposes of coloring clay, you really should get just the regular sets and try to stay away from the lighter "pastel" sets. This is because you can always mix less pastels into white clay to get a lighter color, but you cannot mix more light-colored pastels into the clay to make it darker! Also, I have not tried coloring the clay with either hard or oil pastels, but from what I've read, it is best to use chalk pastels.
Oil pastels and the hard pastels tend to come off as chunks and shavings rather than powder pigments. More.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
