Draw vivid backgrounds then blend with water for layered mixed-media depth
Water-reactive pigments transform these crayons from simple color sticks into versatile mixed-media tools. Apply directly to porous surfaces, paper, cardstock, watercolor paper, then activate with water to create flowing backgrounds, graduated washes, or controlled smudge effects. The smooth formulation glides on bold and bright, then softens beautifully when moisture hits it. Layer over stamped images to add dimension, or use as your base layer before building up with Distress Inks for complex depth.
Each set contains six coordinated colors that mirror specific sections of the Distress Palette, making it simple to match your existing ink collection. Sets range from the bright jewel tones of Set #1 (Picked Raspberry through Peacock Feathers) to the earthy neutrals of Set #3 (Antique Linen through Picket Fence) to the rich, aged tones of Set #10 (Aged Mahogany through Gathered Twigs). A dedicated Metallic Set provides Antique Bronze, Brushed Pewter, and Tarnished Brass for accent work.
The water-reactive nature means you control intensity, light application yields subtle tints, heavy pressure delivers saturated color. Blend multiple colors wet-on-wet, or layer dry applications for dimensional texture. Paper crafters and mixed-media artists appreciate how these crayons bridge the gap between drawing tools and watercolor effects.
