This box was a tasty way to welcome the new year. It is filled with deep, rich colour pencils that got us thinking about something edible. In creating this box, we were inspired by our featured artist, Xuetong Wang. The supplies include: A Derwent blender pen, a set of Derwent fine artist’s pencils, a unique concertina sketchbook and the all important Pilot B2B recycled ballpoint pen to outline your work.

#FeaturedArtist

Xuetong Wang

Xuetong is an illustrator based in China, her work has received awards such as the Derwent Art Prize, American Illustration, Society of Illustrators and so on. She treats her illustrations as a method of communicating, using beauty, accuracy, and interest as the basis for her work.

“This piece was taken from my daily sketch project. I drew all different kinds of food every day using colored pencils. The organic feel of colored pencils and hands-on drawing brings a sense of freshness to the paper.”

Derwent Artist Colouring Pencils

Derwent Artist Colouring Pencils

Derwent’s Artist range of colouring pencils offer a colouring solution perfect for beginners and professional artists alike. These pencils have a broad, round barrel with a traditional wide core. As the lead is nice and thick, it makes them great for broader strokes, adding lashings of colour and for creating expressive drawings. They have a hard, break resistant core and a waxy texture which makes them ideal for layering and shading. This also allows for easy blending so you can create a vast range of different tints and new colours with ease.

Derwent Blending Pen, 4mm

Derwent Blending Pen, 4mm

Your new blending best buddy! The Derwent blending pen is a professional quality, alcohol based blender pen ideal for use with both colouring and graphite pencils. Use with a light hand for best results. This pen will become your go-to for smoothing out pencil lines, creating transitions between colours and ensuring an even colour application.

Pilot B2P Ballpoint Pen

Pilot B2P Ballpoint Pen

An innovation in reducing their carbon footprint, the B2P Ballpoint Pen from Pilot is made with 94% recycled plastic components, specifically using PET from recycled drinks bottles. Featuring a high performance, oil based, quick drying blue ink it writes and draws smoothly for a comfortable drawing experience. The 1.0mm nib gives a 0.32mm medium line. It’s also worth noting that this pen can be refilled 3 times, another nod towards reducing their environmental impact.

Seawhite of Brighton Concertina Sketchbook

Colores únicos

Es primera vez que uso este tipo de lápices pero me encanta que con el plumón todo se mezcle de una forma uniforme. Son colores únicos y perfectos para hacer detalles.

Perfect

This is a perfect box! It really is a gift. I enjoy all the boxes, but perhaps not everyone would appreciate some as a gift. However, this is an ideal gift; I already have a spare. The pencils Are so easy to use; they just glide on the paper, and the concertina book is something you don’t see a lot.

I got this for myself

I got this for myself and a friend as it was on sale. The coloured pencils are quite nice and I love the sketchbook! The pen is a pretty standard ballpoint pen, just made out of recycled plastic. I do really like drawing with pens though so it's perfect for me and it's a nice shape/size to hold comfortably. Blender is also quite fun to use!

I dont bother anymore

I have recieved this box under my subscription and loved it so I ordered it again so I can have spares. In the box the notebook was the inccorect one and all customer service did was, offered me £2 (yes £2!) refund or exchange at MY cost.
I have cancelled my (over 2 years running) subsciprtion :)

Beautiful colors but...

I really love the colors.
The idea of the accordion sketchbook is great.
But unfortunately, pencils do not work very well on the sketchbook; especially light colors.
I think that these pencils are too soft.
The ballpoint pen is great, it slides very well on paper.

Lovely Goodies

The pencils lay down nicely, can be blended easily and feel great to use. The blending pen is really good too. The whole box is full of really good items that are great for many different projects.

Okay

I really like the sketchbook, although it's a little dauting to have all one piece! The biro was an odd choice, and had a lot of packaging for something so proud of being recycled. The limited palette was interesting but ultimately I wasn't a fan of the pencils. They came out quite light and were difficult to blend. Possibly more tips in the zine could have helped with this. I'll try them again but not likely to buy more from the range

Enjoying the colored pencils.

I tend to do my blending by how I draw so I haven't used the blender much. I must admit, I haven't used the ballpoint pen yet either. I'm still keeping that book pristine because I am thinking of a project to do with it but it won't start until November.
That said, I do like Derwent stuff. I also made something using these pencils then augmented the results with glitter paint from another kit.
I still want to push myself further with what I do with these items.

A fun mix

A really interesting box! I love the art print a lot and I thought the colour palette was really fun. It reminded me of the colour selection for the posca pencils in a previous box. My favourite part of the box was actually the eco pen! Very unexpected but it draws so smooth and the blue colour really pushed me outside of my usual sketch style! The blending tool works really well and really allowed me to layer up the colours for a good range of use!
