Reviews

The quality of these pencils

"The quality of these pencils is perfect for any level of creative visual artist. The pigment is great and they bled beautifully in water and brush work. Perfect for illustration drawing and mixed media art. I love them."

"Good coverage"

Pantelitsa W. (5/5)

Lovely Color

"I have just started using these water color pencils and I love the color saturation and the ease with which the pencils are to use. I have not traveled with them yet but I am using them to accent the landscapes I have drawn."

Felicia A. (5/5)

Delicate washes

"Good. Interesting basic set soft and feathery delicacy, gentle washes."

Gail I. (5/5)

My favourite watercolour pencil!! Smooth

"My favourite watercolour pencil!! Smooth creamy lay down and beautiful dry or water activated. W&N art supplies are always excellent quality"

Therese G. (5/5)

Quite smooth but not as

"Quite smooth but not as bright as another brand that I was given as a gift. However, that's ok because I can use them both to give more depth in layering / contrasting / enhancing each other."

Mary B. (4/5)

Fantastic!

"Fantastic!"

Claudia F. (5/5)

More pigment

"Only downside is the consistency of pigment saturation on all hues. Some are just there for blending or undertoning and that’s not ideal to put it nicely. Even if it’s just 2 out of 48, they do remind me of the dollarstore pencils for children with how weak they’re made for a ”higher end professional” pack like this one."
