Are Derwent’s Inktense watercolor pencils going to change the way I create? Today I’m exploring them to find the answer to that question! I’ve been using Staedtler’s Karat Aquarell black watercolor pencil for many years and I’m always thrilled by the intense black it gives up when you touch it with a brush. Today I’ve been enjoying that same experience in technicolor! Join me as I explore and experiment my way through a set of 12 Inktense pencils (and a couple of Graphitint pencils) and use them in my loose and free style to sketch and “paint” a whimsical scene from my farm in France. Watch carefully and you’ll see how easy it is to control the color, and the best part is that there’s no time pressure! The pencil will wait patiently for you to be ready to add water! I’m already excited to try this method for my nature journal, sketching with the Inktense pencils outside and then coming back to the studio to add the water. And these plus a water brush would make a simple but effective travel set.

About my brushes
I have always bought my favorite brushes from Drawell direct from Japan. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/product.html
