Blackwing Colors 12-Pack

Soft and Smooth

Blackwing Colors are our favorite pencils for coloring Field Notes’ Spring 2023 “Streetscapes” Edition… or just about any illustration project. They’re made with genuine incense cedar, and the same semi-hexagonal shape of Blackwing’s beloved graphite pencils. A metal end cap adds a bit of weight, and gives the pencils a comfortable, balance.

But the best part is the soft, smooth Japanese wax core… they’re a joy to use, providing rich, saturated color with minimal pressure. It’s easy to layer colors to create new hues, create smooth gradients, and accentuate (or hide) the texture of the paper.

The sturdy, attractive box includes 12 colors: Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Light Green, Green, Light Blue, Blue, Purple, Brown, Black, and Silver. (You’re especially going to love Silver.)
