Working with Soft Pastels

Some safety precautions can be kept in mind while working with pastels. 

*Your studio should be well ventilated to eliminate dust. 

*Use a mask to avoid breathing any ambient dust. 

*When drawing, create a static area to attract pigment particles away from you.  

*Always remember to vacuum your space regularly with a vacuum that has a HEPA filter and bag. 

*To protect hands and skin, use a barrier cream, Dermex, or wear latex gloves. 

*Also a stump or chamois cloth can be used to rub in the pastels to avoid direct contact with the pigment. 

*My latest effort is, however, to use a pastel that creates less dust.
