In the artroom, teachers can use Derwent Inktense Pencils to introduce colour theory, watercolour techniques, and mixed-media exploration. Their permanence when dry encourages students to experiment with layering, collage, and fabric design without fear of colours bleeding or smudging. Ideal for both small studies and large-scale projects, these pencils help students develop confidence with colour blending, controlled line work, and expressive washes. Whether working individually or in groups, Inktense sets provide the flexibility, durability, and professional quality needed to support growing creativity across a wide range of classroom activities.
