Review on Cezanne Multicolor Professional Sketching Coloring by Stephanie Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent set of pens

I would like to start by just really liking the beautifully designed tin that came in a set of 72. others are mentioned. However, my husband, who is an artist, said he thought they weren't pencils but plastic bowls that fell out of a can. Since I also received a more portable product to carry around, I immediately removed them from the trays and closed the tin. no more smell Yes, the crayons did have some odor from the trays, but it was much milder and quickly dissipated within a few hours to a day or two. I haven't smelled the smell since, and the tin of empty trays remains sealed and stored on a shelf in my home office. Not a single pencil was broken or damaged in any way. The colors are beautiful and for me, not an artist at all, I love how they layer and blend. My husband tried them too and agreed. And as an artist, he has a set of crayons that cost way more than any set you can get at Revain. As a non-artist I just wanted an affordable coloring book coloring set for adults and this is a great set recommended by me, a beginner, and my husband, an expert. Other than that I don't know about any other brands, sets, types or qualities so I can't say if this pencil is for professionals/experts. I think with several options available on the market designed for professionals/experts, stick with it. I think someone who is familiar with these colored pencils probably wouldn't be interested in finding cheaper sets like this one that are more suitable for beginner and intermediate hobbyists who don't really make a living from their art.

Pros
  • Useful beyond its intended purpose
