How to use

Select the desired colour and sharpen the pencil with a standard sharpener. Apply light, even strokes for base colouring and increase pressure for more saturated tones. For blending and shading, layer adjacent colours and use cross-hatching or circular strokes to achieve smoother transitions. Store pencils in the supplied cardboard box when not in use to protect the leads and maintain order.

Recommendations

Use medium-weight drawing paper for best colour intensity and less wax bloom. Keep a clean, sharpener nearby and supervise young children during sharpening to avoid injury.
