Caran d’Ache Fancolor Water Soluble Pencils – Ostwald Color Theory

Water-Soluble Colored Pencils for Blending, Layering, and Color Harmony

Fancolor water soluble pencils are highly pigmented pencils designed for drawing, blending, and transforming color into watercolor with a wet brush.

Explore color relationships through a thoughtfully balanced 12-color set based on the Ostwald color circle, offering harmonious reds, blues, greens, yellows, magentas, and cyans for expressive, well-balanced artwork.

Each pencil features a soft yet break-resistant 2.8 mm lead that glides smoothly across paper while remaining durable for everyday use. With the addition of water, dry marks dissolve into luminous washes, making these pencils well-suited for layering, sketching, and subtle watercolor effects.

Crafted from FSC-certified wood, the hexagonal barrels provide a comfortable grip and help prevent rolling. Stored in a durable metal tin, this set is practical for use at home, in the classroom, or on the go.
