Description
The Derwent Watercolour Pencils Tin (12 Colours) combines the precision of drawing with the fluidity of watercolour painting, making it a versatile choice for artists of all levels.
These pencils can be used dry for soft shading and layering, or with water to create beautiful washes and flowing colour effects. Unlike more intense ink-based pencils, this range offers subtle, natural tones, ideal for delicate artwork and controlled blending.
A key advantage is that the colour is reworkable once dry — simply add water again to adjust, soften, or move the pigment. This makes them especially suitable for experimentation and mixed media work.
Compact and easy to use, this 12-colour set is perfect for sketching, painting, and on-the-go creativity.
