Derwent Watercolour Pencils can be mixed with water to create unique colour flows and stunning watercolour effects. These easy to sharpen, break-resistant pencils are ideal for long periods of use. Plus, with the 3.4mm core and hexagonal barrel, you gain greater precision for detailed drawings. They combine the control of a pencil with the beauty of watercolour. Use a wetted pencil tip to create rich, textured lines, or use dampened paper to obtain bright colours with soft edges. The pigment transfers to paper quickly due to the softer formulation, which makes it easier to blend and layer colours. Create a range of effects, from bold, vibrant colours to delicate watercolour washes. Easily customize colours by adding more water, which creates a more muted, watercolour wash. As the pigment is not permanent, you can use water to move and adjust the colours, even after it has dried. With a heritage dating to 1832, Derwent’s innovation comes from an understanding of artists. We’ve produced a range of quality art materials, many of which are made in our British manufacturing plant.
