These hexagonal Gradient Sketching Pencils come in a range of graphite grades for all drawing styles and techniques. This light to dark palette will guide you through the grades from fine and precise to soft and free.
Lead designer Tara's idea for the Gradient Sketching Pencils was conceived during a weekly life drawing class. "Having had to search through my traditional grey set each time I needed a 6B in place of a HB or 2H, it occurred to me there must be an easier way to differentiate the pencils. The constant scramble for the required pencil slowed down my sketching, interrupting the creative flow.”
- 6 grades included: 2H, HB, B, 2B, 4B, 6B
