Derwent Tinted Charcoal Set of 24 – The Expressive Power of Charcoal with a Hint of Colour
The Derwent Tinted Charcoal Set of 24 offers artists a unique way to combine the bold drama of traditional charcoal with the subtle beauty of colour. This carefully selected collection brings together the depth, richness, and smudgeable texture of charcoal. Also with a gentle infusion of colour pigments, giving you greater versatility in your artwork.
Inside you’ll find 24 tinted shades ranging from earthy browns and leafy greens to soft violets, blues, and warm ochres. These shades allow you to build atmospheric effects. Add depth to tonal studies, or introduce delicate colour washes into your charcoal drawings. Each pencil is encased in wood for cleaner handling. Making them less messy than traditional charcoal sticks while still retaining that authentic charcoal feel.
The soft, powdery texture blends beautifully, allowing for smooth transitions and layering. You can smudge and mix the pigments to create subtle gradations. Also apply them more firmly for bold lines and dramatic contrasts. When water is added, the pigments transform into rich, ink-like washes, further expanding your creative possibilities.
This set is ideal for landscapes, life drawing, or expressive sketching. It offers the artists the ability to capture mood and texture with ease. Packaged in a sturdy metal tin, the pencils are easy to store and transport. This makes them suitable for both studio and outdoor use.
With the Derwent Tinted Charcoal Set of 24, you can explore the best of both worlds—classic charcoal drawing with the added versatility of colour. It’s an inspiring choice for artists of all levels who want to expand their creative toolkit and bring new life to their sketches and studies.
