Faber-Castell Pitt natural drawing charcoal 5-8 mm, 12 pieces

Faber-Castell Pitt - natural drawing charcoal 5-8 mm

Drawing charcoal is the oldest drawing material, valued for its deep black and freedom of gesture. The Faber-Castell Pitt set contains 12 natural charcoal sticks with a diameter of 5 to 8 mm and a length of about 95 mm.

The mark has a characteristic, slightly bluish tint. The soft structure is easy to blend with a finger, cotton pad or blending stump, and mistakes are corrected with a kneaded eraser. The sticks contain no grease or oil, so the work stays clean and tonal transitions are smooth. It is a material for people who value spontaneous, expressive drawing.

Applications

• dynamic sketches and figure studies,
• large shading areas and tonal backgrounds,
• dry-technique drawing on textured paper.

Specifications

To fix a finished work, use a fixative to prevent the charcoal from smudging.
