We love clutch pencils at Artsavingsclub, but what is a pencil without lead? Luckily Caran D’Ache has got you covered with their perfect 2mm lead.
Caran D’Ache prides themselves on pristine quality, Swiss-made art supplies, and that is noticeable throughout the entire offering, even in smaller products like their lead refills.
We have slowly been introducing you to various pencils, pastels and pens. But if you have the nasty stationary addiction I have, then storage becomes a bit of an issue. Especially if you by now have 12 sets of coloured pencils or a whole array of pastels (or, as in my case – both!).
The humble pencil – an absolute ‘must have’ tool for any creative.
Even the most complex projects all start with a single pencil stroke.
Nothing is more heartbreaking than parting ways with the last few millimetres of your trusty graphite partner. You know… When not even a pencil extender can help anymore. Sayonara, old friend….
Kneadable erasers are awesome, and for some reason, not many people are talking about them. We’re hoping to change that!
This often-neglected aspect is a key step to creating a strong foundation to build your masterpiece on. Every art form and artist has their own approach to initial planning, so we thought we’d demystify one of our favourite tools for sketching and pencilling comics and illustrations – the non-photo (or non-reproduction) blue pencil.
It is no secret that I am a pencil addict, so it was with great anticipation that I awaited the arrival of the Stabilo Carbothello pastel pencils on the Artsavingsclub pencil rack. They definitely did not disappoint when they finally found their way into my greedy hands!
It’s difficult not to imagine the start of a school year without the mandatory new set of colour pencils – I remember so vividly how beautiful I thought the perfectly colour-arranged packets were – the barrels shiny, the lid marked where the sharp points stained it so alluringly.
