How to use

Select required colors and sharpen pencils with a suitable sharpener to expose a consistent core for precise lines or broader strokes. Apply light pressure for translucent layers and increase pressure for more saturated color. For shading and gradient effects, layer colors and use light cross-hatching or circular strokes. Keep pencil points well maintained to ensure even application and avoid excessive force that may break the core.

Usage recommendations

Store the pencils horizontally in a dry place to reduce the risk of core breakage and to maintain consistent sharpening. Use a quality sharpener designed for colored pencils to prevent splintering of the wooden casing. When blending, experiment with layering order and pressure rather than solvents to preserve the integrity of the cores.
