Caran d’Ache reveals a Special Edition brimming with creativity, born of its collaboration with British illustrator and brand ambassador Nina Cosford. Known for her expressive figures and joyful colour palette, the artist brings to this collection a spirit that is inclusive and distinctly contemporary.
Part of the collection includes a Caran D'ache Supracolor Aquarelle set with 12 colour pencils chosen by the artist herself to illustrate a diversity of skin tones and a QR code, which gives access to an exclusive online course on the Creative Class by Caran d’Ache platform. The workshop includes Nina shares her tips and techniques for capturing all the diversity and beauty of people in motion, personalising each character with a variety of hair styles, clothes and accessories.
The Caran d'Ache Supracolor Aquarelle is a high-quality artist's water-soluble colour pencil range known for their vibrant colours, smooth application, and versatility. They are a popular choice among artists, designers and illustrators for their ability to create a wide range of effects, from delicate washes to bold, saturated colours.
The pencils can be used dry for drawing and sketching, or wet for creating watercolour effects. They can also be combined with other mediums like ink and gouache. Despite their soft pencil core, the 3.8mm pencils are surprisingly durable and resistant to breakage.
The bodies of the pencils are encapsulated in a premium FSC certified cedar wood in a hexagonal shape, with the colour number and name indicated.
- Professional artist-quality aquarelle pencils.
- The fully water-soluble lead has a soft, creamy consistency that makes it extremely blendable, yet it’s very resistant to breaking, making the pencils durable with hardly any waste.
- As with all watercolour pencils, you can use them dry to add fine detailing, or wet them to create more traditional watercolour effects.
- This Special Edition Creative Class set is the perfect gift idea for fans of the artist or anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the joyful and colourful world of Nina Cosford.
- Contents Included: 12 x Caran D'ache Aquarelle Water-Soluble Coloured Pencils, 1 x Round Brush Size 5 and a QR code for the Creative Class - all houses in a metal tin.
