Pencil Art - Blend and Shade

This creative set introduces a step-by-step approach to a range of techniques using coloured pencils — encouraging older children to explore and create a variety of interesting and vibrant effects.

Beginning with fundamental pencil stroke techniques such as hatching, contouring and stippling, the lessons progress to more advanced methods including pressure variation, layering, blending, cross, patch and scribble hatching. Perfect for young artists wanting to level up their drawing and colouring skills, the guided exercises build confidence while expanding technique and control.

Set Includes:

• Concise pencil technique manual (4–6 pages)
• 20 illustrated colouring pages on premium 200gsm watercolour paper
• 10 double-ended, artist-quality pencils (20 tones)
• Handy storage box for neat organisation

Designed for older kids (suitable from around 8 years+), this kit makes a thoughtful gift and an inspiring introduction to blending, shading and creative mark-making. Whether practising basic strokes or experimenting with layered colour effects, this set provides the tools and guidance to develop lasting art skills.
