Graphite Aquarelle Pencils
Graphite Aquarelle Pencils combine the precision of traditional graphite drawing with the expressive possibilities of watercolor. Fully water-soluble, these versatile pencils allow artists to sketch, shade, and render details before activating the graphite with water to create smooth tonal washes and atmospheric effects.
Perfect for preliminary sketches, watercolor underdrawings, mixed media artwork, and standalone graphite watercolor techniques, these pencils offer exceptional flexibility for artists who enjoy both drawing and painting approaches.
Each pencil features a thick 3.3 mm break-resistant graphite core that sharpens easily and provides excellent control for both fine detail and expressive mark-making. The hexagonal barrel offers a comfortable grip, while the sustainably sourced wood construction and water-based varnish make these pencils an environmentally conscious choice.
Available in five graphite hardness grades, individually or in sets.
