Cretacolor has created two new artists’ quality pencil ranges.

new Marino and Karmina pencils

Marino has a blue barrel to show you right away that it is a watercolor pencil. It has brilliant colors, a soft stroke and the highest lightfastness rating. Its true beauty reveals itself when dissolved with water: clear lines flow into smooth transitions. The colours can be mixed with one another to achieve numerous shades.

Karmina coloured pencils are extremely pigmented and highly lightfast. Buttery and smooth, these pencils create flowing strokes that cover large areas well. This high quality range features 36 colours that can be layered and blended to create even more beautiful shades.

See these pencils and request a free sample pack from the Jackson’s website. UPDATE: Cretacolor have now run out of the samples.
