Derwent Watercolour Pencil Tin Of 36

Create a Wide Range of Exciting Effects, from Bold to Soft, Subtle Expressions

Derwent watercolor pencils are versatile and professional artist-quality, water-soluble pencils that create a wide range of exciting effects, from bold, vibrant images too soft, subtle impressions. Combining the control of a pencil with the beauty of traditional watercolors, their high pigment content offers exceptional color blend, wet or dry.

Create intense color by applying a dry pencil over wet washes. Make sure you use a blunt tip to avoid surface damage. To produce texture or mottling, scrape flakes from the tip of the pencil with a craft knife, or rub the tip over a sandpaper block, allowing settling and dissolving on a wet area of the paper. Alternatively, flick color off the tip of the pencil with a wet toothbrush. Blend color and create washes by dragging a natural sponge or wet cloth over dry marks. Make sure that you regularly clean the pencil tip by scribbling on dry paper to minimize color contamination.

The pencils are pre-sharpened for immediate use and a color-dipped end offers easy color identification. An ideal gift for the budding art student or the artist in you.
