ArtGraf - Carbon Disc Set
Carbon Disc Set
Create rich carbon effects wet, dry, or with a brush
Compacted carbon in disc form responds differently than pencils or charcoal sticks, you control intensity by varying water and pressure rather than relying solely on application technique. ArtGraf Carbon Discs work dry for bold graphite-like marks or transform instantly with water into rich washes that flow like ink. The compressed format means you can apply pigment directly with a wet brush, eliminating transfer steps and letting you build atmospheric effects or precise details without switching tools.
Each disc delivers concentrated carbon pigment that maintains its intensity whether you're creating delicate tonal gradations or deep blacks. The solid construction won't crumble or break like traditional compressed charcoal, making these discs practical for location work and travel. Cork packaging protects the discs while staying lightweight and minimalist, functional design that doesn't add bulk to your kit.
Use these for monochromatic studies where tonal range matters, or combine them with watercolor and ink for mixed media work. The water-soluble nature means you can lift and reactivate pigment even after it dries, giving you flexibility to adjust values and refine compositions. Illustrators working in carbon and wash techniques find these discs particularly useful for their versatility and the direct control they offer.
