## Description

Derwent Watersoluble Sketching Pencils, 6-Ct. Metal TinUse Them Wet or DryDerwent Sketching Pencils are watersoluble tools best suited for freestyle sketching and bold line drawings. A soft, extra wide graphite core sweeps smoothly across paper for a fast, even lay down, yet is equally suitable for more detailed work. Use them dry or add water to bring a new dimension to your work. Durable metal tin includes 2 each of the following degrees: HB, 4B, 8B and a pencil sharpener. H pencils are hard, light and leave less graphite on paper. B pencils are soft, dark and leave more graphite on paper; HB is somewhere in the middle range between H and B, yet still reasonably hard. The more B’s, the softer the lead. HB is equivalent to a standard number 2 pencil. Plus, they’re pre-sharpened, so they’re ready to use.Watersoluble Sketching Pencils Allow You to Create in a Variety of Ways:Cross Hatching — Simply lay down lines by crisscrossing them over each other.Layering — Layer different degrees of pencil to achieve various tones and shades.Blending and Burnishing — Perfect for adding shine to your work especially when drawing leaves of fruit.Wax Resist — Draw your design using the burnishing pencil, then add your graphite and/or color.

Review: Easy to use Derwent water soluble pencils. - I bought Derwent water soluable carbon pencils. I found them very easy to learn to use, the size of the pencil was comfortable in my hand, and their quality was great for doing artwork and classes I was taking. The drawings dried quickly. They were a fairly good value for the money.
Review: These are a must have for any sketcher or plein air painter. - I didn’t know these existed until a teacher in a class listed them in materials list. They are wonderful! There are 3 different hardnesses- HB, 4B and 8B (2of each) with a nice sharpener all in a metal box. They are so fun to use- I use a travel watercolor paintbrush to activate the areas I want and leave the areas dry that I don’t need a wash or blend. Nice quality- I recommend them and would buy them again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tired of pencil marks under your watercolors?
*by A***R on March 7, 2024*

Worth every penny! I saw this Derwent product in a YouTube video and it lived up to the hype! When wet can disappear on canvas or blend in on 300gsm paper. Equally as good as the Inktense Derwent pencils (Amazing)
