Derwent : Inktense Pencil : Thistle

Derwent Inktense pencils offer the vibrancy and intensity of pen and ink drawing, in an easy to use pencil. Colours can be blended together with a slightly wetted paintbrush, and overall washes can create vivid ink like translucency and colour. Inktense pencils are permanent once dry, so other media can be used over the top of your work to create a multitude of effects, and a non soluble outliner is also available that is not affected by water for further effects. Inktense pencils can also be used on other mediums as well as paper, and they are particularly good on cotton and silk!As the colours are so vibrant and ink like Inktense pencils have become a firm favourite for Manga artists and Botanical Illustrators alike, who favour the flexibility of blendable pencil work.
