What was in the box?

Derwent Charcoal & Graphite Blocks

The Derwent Charcoal and Graphite blocks are chunky sticks made from a perfected blend of charcoal and graphite. They are great for creating bold, dramatic sketches and atmospheric line drawings. They’re perfect for seamless blending, mixing and layering and are also water-soluble too - add a little water to create a subtle wash. Experiment with using the side of the block to create wide sweeping strokes, and the ends, which can create finer more precise lines.

Faber Castell Pitt Graphite Matt Pencils

These Pitt Graphite Matt pencils are a revolution for graphite drawing. These innovative pencils are specially developed to reduce light reflections on the paper, for a perfect matt finish to your designs. They’re extra break-resistant, and have the environment in mind, with carbon-neutral production, wood from certified sustainable forestry and finished with an environmentally-friendly water-based varnish.

Clairefontaine PaintOn Denim A5 Pad

A new denim-coloured paper that’s a natural shade of mineral blue-grey and a great mid tone starting point. This paper can be paired with all kinds of media including charcoal, graphite, pencils, pastels, acrylic, watercolour and even oil paints. It is an ultimate mixed media option for any artist.

Viarco ArtGraf Tailors Chalk

You may have seen tailors chalk for use with fabric, but Viarco have used this familiar shape to create an artists chalk block. This chalk pairs beautifully with charcoal and graphite as it layers and blends so easily and it’s water-soluble so you can create soft washes of white.

Goldfaber White Colour Pencil

This Goldfaber coloured pencil is created with high-quality materials to provide maximum break-resistance, excellent lightfastness and outstanding colour brilliance. It has a wonderful creamy consistency with a soft but sturdy lead as well as brilliant pigmentation that layers very well on multimedia projects.

Derwent Blending Stump

This paper stump is a handy tool for blending and smudging dusty media like charcoal, graphite or pastel. It’s great for taking the fuss and mess out of using your fingers and when it wears down you can easily clean and re-point it with a soft sand paper.
