Derwent Graphitint Set of 24 – Subtle Colour with the Character of Graphite
The Derwent Graphitint Set of 24 is a distinctive collection of watersoluble pencils that combines the rich qualities of graphite with a soft infusion of colour. Perfect for artists who enjoy the depth and texture of graphite but want to explore a more expressive palette, these pencils open the door to subtle yet striking creative possibilities.
Each pencil in the set offers a unique blend of muted colour tones—ranging from deep plums and forest greens to earthy browns and slate blues. When used dry, they deliver a smooth graphite texture with just a hint of colour, ideal for understated drawings or tonal sketches. Add water, and the pigments dissolve into luminous washes, intensifying the colour and transforming your work with painterly effects.
The soft, blendable cores allow for smooth layering and shading, while the watersoluble properties encourage experimentation with washes, gradients, and mixed-media techniques. Whether you’re working on landscapes, urban sketches, portrait studies, or abstract compositions, the Graphitint pencils adapt beautifully to a variety of styles.
Presented in a sturdy metal tin, the set is practical for both studio work and outdoor sketching. Compact yet versatile, it provides everything you need to explore the unique fusion of graphite and colour in your art.
With the Derwent Graphitint Set of 24, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: the classic handling of graphite with the added richness of colour. This set is a perfect choice for artists who want to expand their creative toolkit and bring a new dimension of atmosphere, mood, and expression to their drawings.
