How to use

Select the desired colour and sharpen the pencil with a suitable sharpener to obtain a fine or broader tip depending on the required line width. Apply with moderate pressure for light tones and increase pressure for more saturated colour. For blending, layer adjacent colours gradually and use cross-hatching or circular motions to create smooth transitions. Store pencils in the original case or a pencil holder to protect leads from breakage.

Recommendations

Use a quality sharpener to avoid excessive breakage of the lead and keep a protective cap or container when transporting. Test colour combinations on a scrap of paper before applying to the final work to assess blending and layering behaviour.
