Castle Arts Watercolour Pencil Set - 72-Piece | Watercolour Pencils

Castle Arts Watercolour Pencil Set - 72-Piece | Watercolour Pencils Description

Combining the subtle beauty of watercolour paints with the practicality and versatility of a pencil, this mammoth 72-piece Castle Arts Watercolour Pencil Set is a must-have for any artist. 

You can use these watercolour pencils dry just like a regular coloured pencil. Light and easy to carry, they've got many uses. Draw tight lines on your canvas, apply them gently for a delicate shading job, or layer many stokes over each other to create a solid block of vibrant colour. Whatever you want to use them for, you'll be able to do it precisely with the Castle Arts Watercolour Pencil Set - their easy-to-grip hexagonal design sees to that.

The Castle Arts Watercolour Pencil Set works great on its own but add some water and you'll see an entirely different side to these humble pencils. The already vivid colour takes on an entirely new dimension as the water causes your canvas to absorb the newly dissolved pigment. You can also blend the watercolour pencils together on the page, just like ordinary watercolour paint, for jaw-dropping new colours. 

With such a massive array of watercolour pencils, it would be a nightmare to keep track of all of them - luckily, Castle Arts have thought it out. On the inside of the carry tin you'll not only find a number for each pencil, but a name and matching shade sample too. 

And if you're new to art and don't know where to begin, the Castle Arts Watercolour Pencil Set is a brilliant choice. Not only does the massive range of pencils cover every colour in the spectrum, there's a handy instruction booklet that comes along with this set. The simple, clear instructions will show you how to recreate the illustration of warrior-king Richard the Lionheart down to the finest detail. Wow!

Colouring just got even more exciting with our brand new Watercolour Pencils! This set of 72 beautiful shades make experimenting with colour washes and blending easy and so much fun!

For a magical colour transformation…just add water!

Unlike our regular (and equally wonderful) coloured pencils, these beautiful watercolour pencils have been developed with a unique water-soluble binder which means that when you add a touch of water the rich, luxurious pigment will disperse creating a magical watercolour effect right before your eyes!

These genuinely versatile pencils are the perfect addition to any artists range of supplies…they will work beautifully with our ‘Soft Series' coloured pencils, adding a new dimension in colouring books and traditional sketches. To add a deep, intense effect on the paper simply dip the pencil tip in a little water – et voila; your artwork has been elevated to a new level.

Become a watercolour painter…with pencils and minimal fuss!

If you love the look and feel of watercolour paintings you can instantly enjoy creating these using a product that you know and trust – the pencil! Simply sketch and colour your drawing as you would with regular pencils then use a brush to apply water to your work. Watch as feint lines disappear and the pigment you have laid down blends to create a visual masterpiece.

So many ways to use these wonderful pencils…

Watercolour artists can use these pencils to add fine detail to their paintings or you can use the pencils as an ‘on the go' set of paints by lifting pigment directly from the tip with a wet brush.!
