Pastel in a pencil: Derwent Red Violet, P270

Pastel Pencils colour P270 from Derwent, Red Violet, with a fine chalk texture and a 4mm core, in a box of 6.

Red Violet (P270) is one colour from Derwent Pastel Pencils. Derwent names detailed drawings, sketches, portraiture and life studies as uses for the range. Light washes are possible with water, since Derwent describes pastel as a naturally water-soluble medium. Each pencil has a 4mm powder-based core with a chalky texture. The fine chalk texture lays down soft colour, according to Derwent. There are 72 colours in the range.

A box of 6 is how we sell Red Violet. Derwent's notes mention minimal dusting from a highly pigmented pencil. Our product code is AA2300256; the Derwent code is 2300256.
