Bring Watercolour Depth and Control to Every Drawing

Derwent Watercolour Pencils in Brown Ochre give you the precision of a pencil with the fluid beauty of watercolour - sold in a convenient box of 6.

The 3.5mm water-soluble strip is highly pigmented for rich, warm Brown Ochre tones that hold their purity whether used wet or dry. Unlike permanent ink-based pencils, the watercolour pigment remains re-wettable once dry, so you can keep working into a piece, lifting and blending colour to achieve subtle, layered results. The hexagonal cedar barrel sits comfortably in hand and sharpens cleanly.

Use them dry for soft, textured marks, then activate with a wet brush to wash colour across the page. They blend beautifully with other Derwent watercolour shades, making them well suited to mixed-media work where control over tone and flow is important.

Ideal for artists, students, and educators who value a consistent, high-quality watercolour pencil in a warm earth tone. A box of 6 ensures a ready supply for the studio, classroom, or office creative space.

FAQs

Yes. Derwent Watercolour Pencils work perfectly dry, delivering smooth, soft marks with a slightly textured finish. Simply add water with a wet brush whenever you want to blend or create a wash effect. The choice between wet and dry techniques is entirely yours.
Unlike Derwent Inktense pencils, which become permanent once dry, Watercolour Pencil pigment can be re-activated with water even after it has dried on the page. This lets you continue working into a dried area, lifting or moving colour to adjust tone and depth.
Inktense pencils contain ink-based pigment that becomes permanent when dry, producing vivid, intense colours. Watercolour Pencils use a softer, re-wettable watercolour pigment that creates subtler, more traditional painterly tones. If you prefer delicate, blendable results, the Watercolour range is the better choice.
This listing covers one box of 6 Derwent Watercolour Pencils, all in the Brown Ochre (colour reference 57) shade. No other colours or accessories are included.
Yes. The hexagonal cedar barrel is straightforward to grip and sharpen, making it practical for younger artists and students. The soft, smooth strip is forgiving to work with, and the re-wettable formula encourages experimentation without the risk of permanent mistakes.
