If texture is your thing then you just hit the jackpot. Meet The Ultimate Brush Toolbox – Pastels!
This incredibly extensive set of pastel brushes is part of The Ultimate Brush Toolbox, which was 5 months in the making. It was very important to me to build the set in a way that was authentic and true to the source material. I wanted these brushes to be made from real pastel samples, so that they would look and act like real pastel drawing media. It was also important to me that these brushes be tested and approved by professional artists before release. Over the course of development I enlisted the help of several artists and designers spanning a range of specialties. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and provided tremendous help to ensure that this brush set contains exactly what a professional artist needs.
There is no longer a need to waste time searching for the perfect brush. The brushes found within this set will give you the confidence you need as an artist. Knowing that your brushes are finely crafted and road tested by professionals makes all the difference!
Not only does this set contain 30 real pastel brushes, it’s also built for every industry standard app: Procreate, Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer. 30 real media brushes x5 apps is 150 brushes included in the download!
It’s been an incredible journey building this brush set. I’m so excited to finally get it into your hands. I hope it ignites new possibilities in your creative endeavours, and I can’t wait to see what you make with it!

Nicole B. –
I simply cannot thank you enough for making these compatible with Affinity! These are some best pastel brushes to date! Thank you! The raster brushes are phenomenal. My only suggestion is to allow some of the vector brushes to work with closed curves. Other than that, this set is perfect!
Gina Tomes –
Thank you for your lovely feedback, Nicole! Hopefully this is something the designer may consider for a future update, but I really hope you continue to enjoy working with your new brushes in Affinity 🙂.
Seantay Brown –
These are the best pastel brushes I’ve purchased and used in my illustrations. Nathan Brown is truly an inspiration. I look forward to purchasing all products created by Nathan. If you’re looking for a pastel brush set check out this one! You won’t be disappointed!!
