Review on 🎨 Yosoo 72-Color Professional Art Drawing Pencils: Premium Colored Pencils Set for Artists' Sketches - 72 Assorted Colors by Carol Miller

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exceeded My Expectations

I am not an artist, and while I can recognize good artistic content, my personal artistic ability is severely limited. However, in recent years I have lost interest in television. Also, as I'm older and in my 60's I don't enjoy reading as much as I used to, I used to read for hours but now my eyes get tired quickly and then my vision blurs. Anyway, I thought I'd try a new color trend that's a calm way to unwind and unwind from the day. I bought my first adult coloring book and chose these crayons because the choice of 72 colors was a generous amount. Being just new to this new hobby I thought the price was reasonable. If I enjoyed coloring, I could always update it later. These crayons are much better than I expected, there is a wide range of different tints and shades for each base color and the crayons color well. While the pencils don't have color names, each color has a specific number and the tip of the pencil matches the color of the pencil lead. Pencil leads are harder and some are softer, none of the pencils in this set feel either too hard or too soft. I can use dots to paint small tiny spaces and I use longer sides for larger areas. The pens color evenly, they don't tear the pages of my coloring book, and the colors don't run or smear. and when my painting is finished, the colors don't bleed or transfer to my fingers. Also, many of the colors are beautiful and vibrant and they stand out in my photos. I can paint on top of each other, and a friend of mine (who paints as a hobby) told me that the correct term for this process is "blend". Any worn pencil can be sharpened quickly and easily with our electric pencil sharpener. I have a good sharp point and the lead wood was smooth and even. Being a beginner I have nothing more to add, but a friend of mine who has more experience in this hobby tried my new color Raffine. pencils. They think these are high quality crayons and about on par with their Prismacolor and Crayola crayon sets.
