Amazing color!

I love using these watercolor crayons! So easy to use. The storage container is very good too. Im so happy I decided to buy them. Dont hesitate..

These pastels are amazing. Theyre creamy, handle beautifully, and handle almost like gouache when wet. Theyre portable and the tin is nice. Im very pleased. The only reason Im leaving a 4 star review instead of 5 is because of the lightfastness of the pencils. First off, theres no rating on the pastel itself, so you have to do a bit of online research to find this information. Not a big deal, but while caran dache has many pastels in this series with excellent lightfastness, only the yellow, black, and white in this set are rated as excellent. The ochre and brown are rated fair, while everything else in the set is rated good to very good. I would have expected higher lightfastness from such a small set, especially the earth colors. They could easily substitute all of these with similar colors of excellent rating.

Used these on a large watercolor project. They worked equally well scribbled then activated with water as just using wet brush to touch the stick and create instantly creamy paint.

I am impressed by the quality

So much fun to use as a mixed media artist!

These are absolutely wonderful for coloring, paining, Bible journaling, and so much more! I love them!!!!

When my art felt like it was missing something i used these they are a great buy and easy to use
