Art Makes Sense Watercolor Pencil Set

Watercolor Pencils for Drawing, Blending, and Brush-Activated Color

Art Makes Sense watercolor pencils are highly pigmented, water-soluble pencils for drawing, layering, and transforming color into watercolor with an included brush.

Bring color and movement to your work with this thoughtfully developed watercolor pencil set from Mercurius, created in collaboration with Lyra and Stockmar. Whether sketching in a field journal, illustrating nature studies, or adding soft washes to classroom work, these pencils offer both control and fluidity in a single tool.

Each pencil features a lacquered triangular barrel for a comfortable, ergonomic grip, supporting both developing and experienced hands. The extra-thick 6.25 mm lead delivers rich, blendable color that applies smoothly and lasts through extended use.

With the included brush, dry pencil marks dissolve into flowing watercolor washes, allowing artists to move seamlessly between drawing and painting techniques.

This 12-color set is based on Goethe’s Color Circle, encouraging intuitive color relationships and harmonious palettes. Made in Germany, these pencils are widely used in Waldorf classrooms, homeschool settings, and artist sketchbooks.
