Derwent Watercolour Pencil Burnt Umber Box of 6

Yes. Derwent Watercolour Pencils work fully dry as a conventional coloured pencil, delivering smooth, layerable strokes. Add water with a brush to activate the pigment and create soft washes. The choice of technique is entirely yours.

The key difference is permanence. Inktense pencils become permanent once dry, delivering brighter, more vivid colour. Watercolour pencils remain re-workable after drying, producing softer, more subtle tones. If you prefer gentle washes and the ability to rework your colour, the Watercolour range is the better fit.

This listing contains 6 Derwent Watercolour Pencils all in Burnt Umber (shade 54). No brush or other accessories are included. Burnt Umber is a warm, earthy brown tone well suited to natural subjects, skin tones, and landscapes.

Yes. The hexagonal barrel provides good control for developing artists, and the cedar wood casing sharpens cleanly with a standard pencil sharpener. The re-workable nature of the medium also makes these a forgiving choice for learners.

Derwent Watercolour Pencils are available as individual pencils and in various tin sizes across the full range. This particular listing is for a box of 6 in Burnt Umber. Check the Mega Office Supplies range for single-pencil options.
