Derwent Inktense Pencils are as versatile as watercolor pencils, but with a firmer texture that allows them to perform with the brilliant intensity of traditional pen-and-ink. These pencils are available in strong, vibrant colors which work beautifully on their own or can be mixed together to create rich, subtle tones. The pure, clean colors are perfect for bold expressive drawings, including fashion illustration, landscapes, greeting cards, and more.
Inktense pencils can be used dry for rich, intense color or washed out with a little water to create a vivid translucent effect. Once dry, the color is permanent and can be worked over with other media. Pencils are pre-sharpened.

LOVE these pencils!
By KJ
from Maryland
Comments about Derwent Inktense Pencils:
These colored/watercolor pencils are amazing! They have a soft enough lead to easily blend colors, but do not easily break. If blending isn't your thing, you may be interested in buying a larger set of these so you can get a better deal as well as receive a larger assortment of colors. The colors are beautiful when using just to color in coloring books or drawing, but when you add water the colors become so intense and vivid, they look more like a heavy ink wash rather than watercolors! I originally bought these pencils for myself, but then I had to go back and buy them as gifts for my daughter and other art enthusiasts in my circle of friends as gifts. The price is high (even on sale they seem to be more expensive than other high quality brands like Prisma), so if you're looking for color pencils to color adult coloring books I would go for something less expensive, but if you're an artist and like to draw, use pen and ink, paint, etc., these are worth every penny!
Fabulous purchase!

So excited to use my pencils!!!
By RawKid
from Memphis, TN
I have yet to dig in but I cannot wait!!! I saw a YouTube video and that plus the great price sold me.I plan to use the pencils for rubberstamping and to tint my ballpoint pen drawings. Again so excited because the color selection is really stellar!
So much pigment in these pencils!

I love how smoothly the color lays down with these pencils. They are a joy to draw with and very easy to blend.
Great for figure drawing and for traveling
By Jean Louise Finch
from Evanston, IL
I just tried these for the first time in my figure drawing class. They are great for quick sketches using pencil and wash technique. I only had a few basic earth tones, but I really liked the fact that some of the colors, such as Sienna, initially draw a dark line, but tint out to a lighter, warmer tone. The pencils also give you an extra dark, intense line when working on wet paper. I tried them on Canson watercolor paper and then I tried the pencils on Yupo. Just drawing with them on Yupo was an amazing experience - the pencils went on the Yupo really smoothly and tinted out really beautifully. I am thinking of buying a set of these in more colors to take to Mexico.

Intense beautifully functional
By Jwing
from Vero beach, fl
Just discovered these. I'm like a kid with a new box of crayons. Would love a larger container full of selections.
Easy to work with, professional results
By Idella
from Corpus Christi TX
I love these pencils! I am a very busy mom and a Professional artist, and in order for me to get any work done I have to take any time I get, I spend a lot of time in the car during practices and school, so I use this time to create. The inktense pencils and blocks are perfect for me because I can paint and draw at the same time without the mess or hassle of other mediums, and it's portable so I can work from my car. Thank you inktense!
Derwent Inktense Single Pencils
By Lauren
from Ventura, CA
Derwent Inktense Pencils are loaded with color, handle well, and can be used wet or dry. I use them with my acrylic painting for added control over edges. Single pencils are reasonably priced. Love them.
