Watercolour pencils

Watercolour pencils are versatile art tools combining the precision of colored pencils with the fluidity of water-based paint. They are made of pigment encased in a pencil form, allowing artists to draw detailed lines or washes. To achieve a watercolor effect, you can apply the pencils directly to paper and then use a wet brush to blend and soften the colors, creating transparency and gradients. They’re ideal for mixed-media projects, illustrations, and expressive art, offering control over detail while enabling the blending and layering techniques typical of traditional watercolors.
