Crayola - Watercolor Colored Pencils
Watercolor Colored Pencils
Transform colored pencil sketches into flowing watercolor paintings with water
Dip the pencil tip in water before drawing, or lay down dry color and activate it with a wet brush, both approaches work. Crayola Watercolor Colored Pencils give you control over how much water-soluble pigment releases, whether you want soft washes or more saturated color. The 3.3mm leads resist breaking under pressure and lay down smooth, consistent color that responds predictably when water hits the surface.
These pencils function perfectly well as traditional colored pencils when you skip the water entirely. Thick leads handle direct application without constant sharpening, while reforested wood barrels provide substance that feels secure in hand during detailed work. Water transforms the marks into painterly effects, useful for backgrounds, blending transitions, or creating atmospheric depth beneath line work that stays crisp.
The 12-color set covers essential primaries and secondaries plus black and white for value adjustments. The 24-color set expands into nuanced options: cool gray for shadows, salmon and peach for skin tones, pine green and aqua green for natural subjects. Both sets give you enough range to work without constantly mixing, whether you're sketching outdoors or working through color studies at your desk.
