## Overview

Derwent Watercolour Pencils offer 72 richly pigmented, water-soluble colours housed in a sturdy wooden box. Featuring a 3.4mm break-resistant core and hexagonal barrel, these pencils deliver precision and durability for detailed artwork. Their soft pigment formula allows for vibrant layering, blending, and customizable watercolor effects, with the unique ability to adjust colours even after drying. Trusted by artists since 1832, this set is perfect for professionals seeking archival-quality, versatile drawing and painting tools.

## Description

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.

Review: Beautiful Set of Grest Pencils - Great quality. I’m getting lovely results with these pencils. The box was priced well and a great addition to my art media. It would be a great gift.
Review: Buy These Pencils for a Magnificent Professional Effect - These pencils are magnificent. The pigments are lush and deep and vibrant. I actually prefer to use these pencils dry, layer them, and burnish them for an effect that is very much akin to that of an oil painting. Unlike the Prismacolor watercolor pencils, these pencils remain sharp and never seem to break; they also achieve a much better point than either the Prismas or the Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer pencils. Dry, these pencils are lovely, deft, and precise and achieve wonderfully fine details. I use them wet to achieve much looser and more painterly watercolor effects! The black is nearly as darkly pigmented as the black in the Derwent Drawing Pencils set. The lightfastness is excellent, too, and I'm very comfortable using these pencils to create art work that I sell in the certain knowledge that--unlike Derwent's Inktense and Derwent's Graphitint (used wet), both of which feature miserable ratings in terms of lightfastness--these pencils are archival. I'd give these pencils ten stars if I could!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Watercolor Pencils
*by E***A on October 3, 2022*

I enjoy working with these watercolor pencils. I had to adjust how hard I bear down on paper with the pencils because they are softer than other pencils I have used. I love the pigments of these pencils and I absolutely love the wooden box that they came in. This would make an excellent gift for the artist or for a person like me who loves to tinker with all kinds of mediums to create things for my home.
