Derwent Pastel Pencils

Derwent pastel pencils provide a soft powdery texture and velvety smooth finish of top quality traditional pastels. Ideal for mixing and blending. Interesting watercolour effects can be achieved by working the pencils as normal and then applying a light wash with water and a soft brush.
These round 8mm diameter pencils with an extra wide 5mm strip are ideal for soft expressive studies. They are a medium pastel with a slightly chalky feel but also able to achieve a fine point. They have a soft powdery texture which means they can be mixed and blended well but because they are encased in wood you do not get the mess associated with a pastel block.
Available in tins of 12, 24, 36 & 72 assorted colours plus a tin of 12 portrait colours
