Description
Watercolour paint, right inside the pencil! Your little artist colours in the usual way, then sweeps a wet brush across the page — and the lines melt into soft, glowing watercolour. It's the moment that makes every child gasp, and it never gets old.
Extra-thick 3.3mm leads hold plenty of pigment, so colours come out vivid and dissolve instantly and evenly. The triangular barrel with its soft grip zone keeps small fingers comfortable and secure, the leads resist breaking through all the enthusiasm, and they sharpen cleanly when the points wear down.
Why we love the Faber-Castell Watercolour EcoPencils:
- Two Kinds of Art in One: Use them dry like colouring pencils, then add water and the same drawing becomes a watercolour painting.
- Thick 3.3mm Leads: Packed with pigment for richer colour that dissolves smoothly and blends beautifully on the page.
- Comfortable Triangular Grip: The soft grip zone holds little fingers securely, keeping longer art sessions comfortable.
- Made From Re-Forested Wood: Timber from managed re-forestation, with break-resistant leads that sharpen cleanly.
How do watercolour pencils work?
There are three lovely ways to use them. Colour normally and brush water over the top to melt the lines into paint. Dip the pencil tip in water before drawing for instant intense colour. Or draw straight onto damp paper for soft, blended edges. Children usually discover all three within an afternoon.
Should I choose watercolour or regular EcoPencils?
Both share the same comfortable grip and quality. The regular Grip EcoPencils are perfect for everyday colouring, homework, and detailed work that stays dry. These watercolour pencils add the water step, so they suit children who like experimenting and want their pictures to look like paintings.
Twelve pencils, one wet brush, and a drawing that turns into a painting.
