Derwent Inktense Pencil Sets

Pencil to ink in just one wash! Derwent Inktense combines the vibrancy of ink with the subtlety of pencils. Apply rich, deep, dry colour then wash out to create a pure and translucent ink-like effect.

Once dry, Inktense becomes permanent and can be worked over without affecting the layers of vivid colour. Perfect for everything from delicate line and wash to expressive mixed media.

Techniques include:

1. Apply water over dry pencil to create a vivid translucent wash
2. Create an outline with a non-soluble pencil, add colour with Inktense then apply a light wash.
3. Work directly onto wet silk to create beautiful, vibrant silk paintings.
