Derwent Inktense 24 Pencil Set | Professional Watercolour Pencils for Art & Craft

Ignite your imagination with Derwent Inktense—highly pigmented, intensely vibrant water-soluble pencils that are perfect for professional art and craft projects. They activate with water to create an ink-like wash, then dry permanent. Build crisp details over translucent layers without lifting colour. Effective on paper, fabric, ceramics, wood and other porous materials.

Why Inktense Is Unique

  • Ink‑like Effects: Dry pigment intensifies when mixed with water for vibrant results.
  • Exceptional Layering: Once dry, the colour is permanent, allowing you to layer over it without dissolving previous applications.
  • Translucent Washes: Create bright, vivid, translucent colour when activated with water.
  • Multi‑Surface Versatility: Works on paper, fabrics, ceramics, wood and more (always test surfaces first).

Set Features

  • Set includes 24 vibrant colours in a protective metal tin.
  • Strong 4 mm round core for smooth, bold laydown and fine detail.
  • Use dry for rich colour, or add water for a brilliant ink‑like wash.
  • Permanent when dry – layer without lifting or bleeding colour.
