How to use

Select the desired colour and sharpen the pencil to an appropriate point for the task. Apply with light, even strokes for layering and build colour intensity by increasing pressure or adding multiple passes. Use blending techniques such as cross-hatching, burnishing with a white or blending pencil, or solvent blending for smoother transitions. Store pencils back in the hanging box after use to protect tips and maintain organisation.

Recommendations

For best results, use a sharp but not overly fine point to avoid core breakage. Combine several shades for richer tones and allow successive layers to sit briefly before burnishing. Keep away from extreme humidity and direct heat to preserve wood and pigment quality.
