Usage tips

Start with light pencil strokes and add water with the included fine brush to build translucent washes. For crisp details, dry pencil work first then apply a controlled wash over small areas, letting layers dry between applications. It’s a good fit if you enjoy mixed techniques that combine drawing and painting, but bear in mind that heavy washes will show the paper texture and work best on paper suited to watercolour.

Care & maintenance

Store pencils in the metal tin to protect tips and avoid extreme humidity which can soften cores. Sharpen gently with a quality sharpener to preserve the water soluble lead. Replace the brush when bristles fray to maintain clean, even washes.
