Derwent Watercolour Pencil Lemon Cadmium Box of 6

Yes. Derwent Watercolour Pencils work perfectly dry, delivering smooth, blendable colour directly on paper. The soft 3.5mm core layers and blends easily without any water, making them versatile tools for both drawing and painting.

The key difference is permanence. Inktense colours become permanent once dry, producing vivid, ink-like results. Watercolour Pencils remain re-wettable after drying, so you can lift and rework colour - and the overall palette is softer and more naturalistic, closer to traditional watercolour.

This listing is for a box of 6 Derwent Watercolour Pencils, all in the Lemon Cadmium colour. The pencils arrive ready to use, encased in Californian incense cedar wood for easy sharpening.

A heavier watercolour paper (300gsm or more) handles wet activation best, as it resists warping and allows more water to be applied. Lighter cartridge paper works well for dry use and light washes.

Yes. The re-wettable, reworkable nature of these pencils makes them forgiving and approachable for beginners. They can be used dry until confidence with wet techniques builds, and mistakes are easily corrected by re-wetting and lifting colour.
