IT'S HERE!
​I am so excited I finally share my excitement about the Unison Colour Lisa Ober 18 Portrait Set!

It took months and a hunt through a huge number of colorful Unison pastels to arrive at the final set of 18 outstanding portrait colors...and I am thrilled with the final collection. I wanted the set to contain the colors I use most often in my own work, colors that will be the most helpful to seasoned professionals as well as aspiring artists.

This set contains the foundational colors portrait artists can incorporate into their own sets to create realistic and accurate skin tones, and is the perfect set for someone just starting their portrait-painting journey.

• Excellent first-layer colors for establishing middle values and overall skin tone
• Great dark colors for deep shadows, good contrast, and hair
• Perfect highlight colors for glowing skin and hair highlights
• Lovely additional colors to help you shift color temperature, add reflective color, and fine tune for a variety of skin shades
• Rich colors for believable mouths
