Model Pastel

The Model Pastel is a trend in graffiti that leaves aside the traxos and brightness, to use different kinds of gradients, which seek to give the work a feeling or 3D effect. Its secret lies in focusing more on the filling of the letters than on the stroke, to ensure greater volume and texture necessary to achieve the perspective sought. The colors used by the graffiti artist are very important since it’s the range of colors chosen that will provide better or worse results.
The pastel model was initially born in Europe, although it became popular in the United States and other countries. It’s a highly artistic urban style since it lacks spontaneity and demands a precise creative process, where the artist must prepare sketches and study the canvas well before forging the final work. Therefore, it’s one of the most admired styles among people outside the world of urban art!
