Derwent Drawing Pencil Terracotta Box of 6

This listing is for one box containing 6 Derwent Drawing Pencils in the Terracotta colour. All 6 pencils are identical in colour and specification, making the box ideal for refilling a studio supply or sharing across a class.

Derwent Drawing Pencils sit comfortably between student and professional grade. Their soft, creamy texture is forgiving for beginners learning to blend and layer, while the quality of pigment and the wide colour strip satisfy the needs of experienced illustrators and working artists.

These pencils perform well on a range of drawing papers, from smooth cartridge to lightly textured cold-press watercolour paper. A paper with some tooth will help build up multiple layers of colour more effectively than a very smooth, coated surface.

Yes. Terracotta is a warm, earthy tone that complements the Sepia tones also available in the Derwent Drawing range, making it well suited to portrait drawing, life studies, and skin tone rendering. It pairs naturally with other earth-palette colours in the range.

Most standard coloured pencils have a colour strip of around 3-3.5mm. The 5mm strip in Derwent Drawing Pencils covers more paper per stroke, reduces sharpening frequency, and allows for broader, more expressive marks - particularly useful when filling large areas with tone.
