Best Techniques for Caran D’Ache Supracolor Pencils
Caran D’Ache Supracolor pencils are highly versatile and can be used with a variety of techniques to achieve stunning results. Here are some of the best techniques to explore with these premium water-soluble coloured pencils:
Dry Drawing
The soft, unbreakable leads of Supracolor pencils allow for clean, accurate lines when used dry. You can create detailed illustrations, hatch, shade, and blend colours directly on the paper surface.
Watercolour Techniques
As water-soluble pencils, Supracolors excel when used with water. You can create wash drawings by applying colour and then activating it with a wet brush. The pigments will spread and blend seamlessly, allowing for unlimited layering and blending.
Superimposed Colour
One of the unique strengths of Supracolor pencils is their ability to be layered and blended, even when dry. You can build up colors by applying one on top of another, creating new hues and adding depth to your drawings.
Mixed Media
Supracolor pencils work beautifully in combination with other media. You can use them alongside Caran D’Ache’s Pablo permanent pencils, Neocolor pastels, and even gouache paints. This allows for a wide range of mixed media techniques and effects.
Large-Scale Drawings
Thanks to their high covering power, Supracolor pencils are ideal for large-scale drawings with expansive areas of colour. The soft leads allow you to fill in spaces quickly and efficiently.
With their versatility, lightfastness, and superior quality, Caran D’Ache Supracolor pencils are a top choice for artists looking to explore a wide range of drawing and painting techniques. Their extensive colour range and blendability make them a valuable tool for both amateur and professional artists alike.
