Derwent Watersoluble Sketching Pencils, Medium Wash (4B) - Pack of 12

YPO See all from this supplier

These Derwent pencils provide all the benefits of regular sketching pencils, with the added bonus of watersolubility to give work a softer feel. With endless possibilities, Derwent Watersoluble sketching pencils make the perfect addition to any budding artist’s repertoire, helping build on existing skills, learn untouched techniques and discover new art styles.

With these pencils, artists are given complete and spontaneous freedom of expression, whether they lean towards free style sketches or bold line drawings, or wish to blend to create subtle variations in tone and mood. Although the slim 6.9mm hexagonal barrel is easy to hold and control for more detailed work, blending works particularly well with Derwent Watersoluble sketching pencils; the soft, extra wide 4mm graphite strip sweeps smoothly across the paper for a fast, even lay down of tone to give all artwork a professional finish.

When washed over with a paint brush and water, subtle line and wash effects are created to give a softer feel to artwork and an almost paint-like effect. Using this technique also helps your pencils last longer compared to standard sketching pencils, and can speed up the drawing process dramatically. For schools on a budget and with limited lesson time, these pencils are the perfect solution.

Manufactured from the finest quality graphite, each pencil is break resistant and easy-sharpening for a long lasting, reliable product. Medium Wash (4B) is the lightest tone of our Derwent Watersoluble offering – dark wash is also available.
