Derwent Watercolour pencils have a soft-textured core, making them easy to blend and layer. Softness and subtlety with watercolour flexibility. Combine the control of a pencil with the subtle beauty of the watercolour medium. Derwent Watercolour pencils are easy to use and can be mixed with water to create interesting colour flows. Watercolour is not permanent, so you can re-wet a section and move the colour around again. Ideal if you like to do more subtle paintings. A high-quality pigment ensures an intensified colour when combined with water. A professional-quality colour pencil that can be painted with as well as used dry, giving the best of both worlds. Achieve a variety of effects, from bold, vibrant images to delicate watercolour washes.
