The pencils are lightweight and straightforward to sharpen, offering reliable performance for classroom use and casual art projects.

How to use

Select the colour required for your work and apply the pencil to paper or suitable craft surface using light, even strokes for an initial layer. Build up intensity by applying additional layers or blend adjacent colours with gentle overlapping strokes or a blending tool suitable for wax pigments. Keep the pencil tip sharp for fine details, and store pencils in their box when not in use to protect the points and maintain order.

Recommendations

Use on heavier paper for smoother blending and to reduce wax bloom; avoid using on very glossy or coated surfaces where adhesion may be reduced. For mixed-media works, apply wax-based pencils after water-based washes have dried. Sharpen with a quality sharpener designed for coloured pencils to avoid breakage.
