Essential Art Supplies: 72 Colored Pencils for Adult Artists, Professionals and Colorists

As artists ourselves, we understand and carefully listen to our customers' needs, creating what they truly want. At Castle Arts, we believe that great visions deserve great materials and support. Whether you're new to art, starting over, or looking to improve, you can only be true to your vision with the right art supplies.

Our premium quality art sets are thoughtfully selected, logically organized, affordably priced, and helpfully packaged. Each set comes with know-how guides designed by our resident artists to give you everything you need to kickstart your creative journey.

Our 28-page booklet takes your art to new levels, providing tips, tricks, and techniques for using your tools and mastering the key skills. It covers topics like caring for your pencils, achieving different styles and effects, understanding color pencil ranges, and exploring blending, layering, and texturing techniques.

With Castle Arts, you can create stunning, subtle effects through beautiful blending, layering, and burnishing. The soft wax core allows you to produce brighter, more vibrant results as you control the smooth application of the rich, pigmented colors.

Every Castle Arts set includes a step-by-step tutorial, guiding you through the colors and techniques used to create the image on the packaging. For example, the 72 Color Pencil Zipper set features a 5-step tutorial on how to draw and color a Gryphon.

The 72 professional artist-grade, break-resistant pencils in our essential range are arranged in color families, named, numbered, and color-coded for easy selection. Encased in soft-touch basswood, they are super-sharpenable and hold their point for detailed coloring.

Our pencils are beautifully blendable, with creamy laydown and velvety smooth application. The pure quality wax cores enable controlled layering and merging of colors from one shade to another, with soft, saturated, natural-looking results.

Put your colored pencils through their paces by varying pressure to control density and deploy techniques like hatching, cross-hatching, contouring, and stippling. Or apply pressure to achieve a rich, burnished sheen.

Our art supplies are tested by our in-house experts to outperform competitors. Trusted by our 2.5 million customers worldwide, they are backed by a unique money-back-plus guarantee.
