Prismacolor - Graphite Drawing Set

Graphite Drawing Set

Master every graphite technique from fine detail to bold shading

Seven graphite grades span the tonal spectrum from crisp 6H highlights to velvety 8B shadows, giving you precise control over value relationships in any drawing. Traditional wood-cased pencils handle detailed line work and refined modeling, while four woodless graphite sticks cover large areas quickly, essential for establishing backgrounds and broad tonal masses without endless sharpening. Three water-soluble graphite pencils transform dry marks into wash effects with a damp brush, opening possibilities for atmospheric effects and tonal transitions that dry graphite can't achieve.

Prismacolor formulates these pencils to sharpen cleanly and resist crumbling, maintaining sharp points through extended rendering sessions. The included kneaded eraser lifts graphite for highlights and corrections without abrading paper, while the Magic Rub eraser removes marks cleanly when you need complete erasure. A pencil sharpener and sandpaper pointer ensure you can maintain whatever point shape your technique demands, needle-sharp for details or slightly dulled for broader strokes.

This combination addresses the full scope of graphite drawing: establishing composition with broad woodless sticks, refining forms with graded pencils, adding atmospheric effects with water-soluble graphite, and controlling highlights with targeted erasing. Beginning artists gain immediate access to professional-grade materials and complete tonal range without purchasing individual components separately.
