Review: Quality art supply - Great quality and size!! Nicely secure in tin
Review: you get a lot, and won't run out fast, so the expense is justifiable - I love these big chunky graphite blocks. They are in a nice tin with padding, and I think the cut out foam that the blocks sit in are the way to keep them lasting. I find it is better to rub a block on a piece of pallet paper, and paint from that, rather than use it like pan watercolors. over time they can crumble if you use them that way a lot like do. I will replace them and not use the new ones like pan paint. I love the affect, the colors, the grainy affects, and how wonderful it to spread, blend and lay down. It's not good for layers upon layers. the bottom layers reactivate, if you are using water, but you can do many layers dry, and use a springy stiff dry brush to lay it down, blend, and fix it with a mat workable fixative, you can paint dry, layer upon layer, and I think I can work bigger, than if Im using pencils, by using larger dry brushes for blending. this works great on bristol, and bristol velum. I think these blocks will stay a staple in my kit. I have not used them yet with inktense blocks, or the inktense pan watercolor but I am planning to soon. I hope you give these a try, and enjoy them as much as I do.
