Faber-Castell : Pitt Oil Base Pencils

The monochrome colours of black, white, sanguine, and sepia can be found in lots of life drawing classes. They bring pictures to life with vitality and expression. This is an old tradition of figure drawing that dates back to the Renaissance, enhanced with white and with shadows deepened with black. Faber-Castell's PITT monochrome crayons hark back to this long tradition of figure drawing, which is why crayons designed for sketching are harder than conventional pastel crayons. For this reason, the lines do not disappear completely when smudged. The sanguine and sepia crayons are supplemented by oil-free and oil-based drawing pencils for sketching and details.
