Derwent Inktense Pencils

Bring bold colour and expressive creativity to every project with Derwent Inktense Pencils. Combining the rich intensity of pen and ink with the versatility of a water-soluble pencil, this premium range is ideal for schools, colleges, studios and home artists alike.

These uniquely formulated pencils can be used dry for vibrant sketching and detailed illustration work, then activated with water to create a beautiful translucent ink-like wash. Once dry, the colour becomes permanent, making them perfect for layering additional detail and building depth without disturbing earlier work.

Ideal for illustrators, designers, students and creative classroom activities, Inktense pencils are suitable for a wide range of porous surfaces, including paper, canvas, fabric, ceramic and wood. This makes them brilliant for mixed media work, textile decoration and experimental art techniques.

Supplied in a sturdy storage tin with individual ridges to keep each pencil neatly in place, this set is easy to organise, transport and store. Available in multiple pack sizes, it offers a wide spectrum of vivid shades for everything from delicate washes to bold artistic statements.
