Coloured pencils are essential tools for creative expression. Whether for spontaneous sketches, detailed illustrations, or experimental works, they provide endless possibilities. At DeSerres, we offer a wide selection of coloured pencils, including watercolour and gouache varieties, to meet every artist’s needs.
Classic coloured pencils
Highly pigmented and easy to use, traditional coloured pencils deliver precise strokes and vibrant fills. They are perfect for quick sketches, colouring illustrations, or creating detailed artwork. Their versatility makes them a go-to medium for artists of all levels.
Watercolour and gouache pencils
For those seeking fluidity and transparency, watercolour and gouache pencils are an excellent choice. Used dry, they behave like standard coloured pencils. When blended with water, they transform into washes and gradients, creating unique textures and overlays. This dual use makes them ideal for illustration and artistic experimentation.
Papers and drawing accessories
The right surface is key to achieving the best results. Our drawing and sketching pads are designed to highlight pigments while preserving line quality. To complete your toolkit, explore our drawing accessories such as erasers, sharpeners, and blending stumps, all essential for refining details and shading.
Enhance your artistic practice
Combining coloured pencils with other mediums opens new creative horizons. Our markers and illustration tools add sharp, bold lines, while graphite pencils and charcoal help define shading and structure before applying colour. For added inspiration, explore our drawing and illustration books.
Tools for every artistic style
Whether you are creating observational studies, travel sketches, or imaginative illustrations, DeSerres’ coloured, watercolour, and gouache pencils provide the perfect medium to express your ideas. Versatile and inspiring, they are the ideal extension of your artistic vision.
