Derwent Academy Watercolour Pencil Turquoise Blue Box of 6

Yes. Derwent Academy Watercolour Pencils work equally well dry, providing soft, blendable colour that layers smoothly. Adding water activates the pigment and creates fluid washes, giving you the choice of two distinct effects from the one tool.

The key difference is permanence. Inktense colours become permanent once dry and cannot be re-activated. Derwent Academy Watercolour Pencils remain water-soluble after drying, so you can re-wet the colour and continue to move and blend it - making them better suited to subtle, layered artwork.

This listing contains 6 Derwent Academy Watercolour Pencils, all in Turquoise Blue (colour reference 39). No other colours or accessories are included.

Yes. The soft, smooth core and hexagonal grip make them easy to control, and the forgiving re-wettable formula suits artists still developing their technique. They are a practical choice for school art programmes and self-directed learners alike.

A standard pencil sharpener works well. The Californian incense cedar barrel is easy to sharpen cleanly without splintering. A quality helical sharpener is recommended if you need a fine point for detailed work.
