Mont Marte Watercolour Pencils consist of thick, soft leads in 24 vibrant colours. May be used dry for regular coloured pencil techniques or used with water for a vast array of effects. Each fade resistant colour is easily blended for shading and mixed media techniques. The pencil body is hexagonal in shape so pencils don't roll away. Each pencil end is coloured to match the lead for easy colour identification. Great for illustration and design.
