MARINE COLOURS: Box of 20 Colours MUSEUM Aquarelle

When drawn on dry, the pencils perform as well as the very best non watersoluble colours, such as Luminance, which is surprising as sometimes watercolour pencils do not appear with as much colour brilliance as their non-water-soluble counterparts.

When a wet brush is dragged across the pencil marks, the colour that disperses in watery pools is lustrous and brilliant. Lesser pencils demonstrate a much lower concentration of colour in washes. Use alongside watercolour to apply very fine detail to your work, or use alone with the freedom to apply very dilute colour as well as very thick bold undiluted marks, all with the same pencil.

This "Marine" assortment contains a selection of essential colours in warm and cool tones for depicting a variety of seascapes. Saturated, light blue-greens for azure waters, deep water and the sky, light colours for the foam, reflections and light, grey-browns for shadow and rocks, reddish tones for sunsets.
