How to use

Select the desired color and sharpen the pencil with a standard sharpener to the preferred point for either broad coverage or fine detail. Apply light, even pressure for soft tones or increase pressure for more saturated color. Layer colors gently to blend shades; use cross-hatching or light strokes to achieve gradients. Store pencils in their packaging or a pencil case to protect the cores from breaking.

Usage recommendations

For best results on paper, use a clean, medium-weight sketch or drawing paper. Avoid excessive sharpening to reduce breakage of cores. Supervise younger children during use, and keep pencils away from moisture to preserve wood and pigment quality.
