Description

Goldfaber Aqua Pencil Sets feature pigment rich colours which blend and mix beautifully. Sets come in a metal tin. Also available Faber Castell Albrecht Durer Pencils.

The pencils are highly pigmented, water-soluble watercolour pencils used for sketching, colouring, and painting. They combine the control of a traditional coloured pencil with the expressive, blending qualities of watercolours.  Use for a combination of dry drawing techniques and full-surface activation with a wet brush.

The Goldfaber Aqua Pencil Sets are highly versatile and typically used to achieve the following:

• Dry Techniques: Use them just like standard coloured pencils for sketching, cross-hatching, and layering to build rich tones.
• Wet Techniques: Completely dissolve the pigment to create soft watercolour washes, gradients, and blended areas. Run a wet brush over your dry pencil markings.
• Intense Highlights: Dip the pencil tip directly into water before drawing, creating bold, highly saturated lines.
• Mixed Media: Use alongside standard watercolours or ink, making them a popular, mess-free choice for sketchbooks, scrapbooks, and craft paper.
• Special Effects: Use for splatter-painting (by scraping pigment onto the paper or running a brush over the pencil nib) to create texture or atmospheric effects.
