Astra Prestige watercolor pencils set with 24 colors, crafted from cedar wood. Pencils feature water-soluble pigment cores for blending, wash effects and layered shading.

## Long description

Astra Prestige Watercolor Pencils set of 24 colors combines cedar wood construction with water-soluble pigment cores designed for smooth application and reliable blending. Each pencil lays down rich, mixable color that can be used dry for precise drawing or activated with water to create wash effects, gradients and painterly textures. The compact set is suitable for sketching, illustration, mixed-media and fine-art work where both drawing control and watercolor versatility are needed.
Advantages
The cedar wood casing provides a comfortable grip and sharpens cleanly for fine detail work. Water-soluble pigments dissolve evenly when brushed with water, allowing easy transitions between crisp dry lines and soft washed areas. The selection of 24 colors offers a wide palette for layering, mixing and achieving subtle tonal variations without introducing stiff or chalky feel.
Suitable for
 Sketching and preliminary studies
 Illustration and character design
 Mixed-media artworks combining pencil and water-based techniques
 Fine-art washes and tonal studies
 Educational art classes and creative workshops
Key specifications
 Set contents: 24 watercolor pencils
 Wood type: cedar
 Core: water-soluble pigment
 Finish: smooth laydown suitable for layering and blending
 Application modes: dry drawing and wet-activated washes
How to use
Use the pencils dry for detailed lines, hatching and controlled shading. To achieve watercolor effects, apply pigment to paper and then brush over the marks with a damp brush to activate the pigments and spread color into soft gradients. Experiment with the amount of water and brush pressure to control edge softness and pigment intensity. Layer dry or wet applications after allowing previous layers to dry to build depth and tone.
Usage recommendations
For best results use medium-weight to heavy watercolor or mixed-media paper to prevent buckling. Sharpen pencils with a quality sharpener for precise tips; soften edges with a slightly damp synthetic brush. Store pencils horizontally to maintain even pigment distribution.
