Derwent Drawing Pencils combine a soft, creamy wax-based formulation with an extra-wide 5mm core to produce smooth, opaque colour and a velvety finish. Designed for effortless blending and layering, they offer excellent control for creating subtle tonal transitions, expressive marks, and richly textured drawings across a wide variety of subjects.
The nature-inspired colour palette includes muted neutrals alongside a broad selection of colours suited to wildlife, landscapes, portraiture, and sketching. The thick 5mm core, the widest in the Derwent range, allows for rapid coverage while maintaining excellent layering and detail. Highly lightfast pigments help preserve the vibrancy of finished artwork, making Derwent Drawing Pencil Sets suitable for artists of all experience levels.
