The colour palette of Derwent Drawing Pencils takes you right back to nature. The colours are rich and earthy and you’ll find their soft texture and the pencil’s extra wide colour strip will be a big help when you’re trying to build up dense fur or feathers. Included are some Sepia tones in the range which you will find very useful when you come to draw portraits & life studies.

Soft, creamy wax-based pencils are ideal for wildlife drawings, nature studies and portraiture. Derwent Drawing Pencils are 8 mm in diameter with soft, thick, round leads that have a creamy consistency, making them easy to apply and produce a rich, velvety finish on the paper. The soft, extra wide 5 mm strip is ideal for blending and encourages loose, expressive drawings with subtle tonal transitions.

Colours can be quickly laid down in wide to thin applications.

Lightfastness rating (LF) = 3,4 – FAIR, MODERATE | 5,6 – GOOD, VERY GOOD | 7,8 – EXCELLENT
Derwent uses the Blue Wool Scale (ISO 105) to evaluate lightfastness. Lightfastness refers to the chemical stability of a pigment under long exposure to light.
A scale of 1-8 is obtained, with values of 6 or higher being considered to be highly lightfast and, under museum conditions, will not fade for 100+ years.
