Derwent Graphitint watercolor pencil set 24cv metal. pack Review

Derwent Graphitint watercolor pencils are a unique art medium for creating unique effects and shades on paper, combining graphite and colored pigments. Professional artists, designers and illustrators often use these pencils for mixed media work. The Graphitint series consists of 24 colors, 19 of which have the highest level of lightfastness (the guarantee of color retention is more than 50 years). The unique color range of Derwent Gaphitint is not found in analogues of other brands and is focused more on animal and landscape artists, since there is no pure black color in nature. When dry, Graphitint colors are muted. Monochrome sketches look good in blue or brown. When washed out with water, the colors become saturated and refined, revealing with a deep graphite sheen. The combination of dry and wet techniques in one drawing creates a high contrast, as the washed out areas have a more saturated color. To get interesting color transitions, it is recommended to work on textured paper. If you apply dry Graphitint pencils on watercolor stains, the relief of the paper is revealed and three-dimensional effects are obtained. Derwent Graphitint pencils are round in shape and finished in a stylish steel color. The body is made of cedar. Case diameter is 8mm, lead diameter is 4mm. The color of the pencil is easy to determine by the corresponding shade of the tip. The texture of the Graphitint lead is smoother and softer than that of a conventional graphite pencil. Derwent Graphitint watercolor pencils are ideal for painting in a variety of genres, from warm autumn landscapes to portraits in cool tones. All Graphitint pencils carry the ''V'' marking, which certifies that no substances of animal origin are involved in the composition and creation of the material.
