Description
The Faber-Castell Burnt Umber Pitt Crayon Box of 12 contains monochrome colors commonly used in life drawing classes. These colors, including black, white, sanguine, and sepia, bring vitality and expression to drawings. The tradition of using these colors dates back to the Renaissance, and Faber-Castell's PITT monochrome crayons are designed to be harder than traditional pastel crayons. This allows for smudging without completely erasing the lines. The box also includes oil-free and oil-based drawing pencils for sketching and adding details.
The monochrome colours of black, white, sanguine and sepia can be found in life drawing classes at almost every art school. They bring pictures to life with vitality and expression. This is an old tradition of figure drawing that dates back to the Renaissance, enhanced with white and with shadows deepened with black. Faber-Castell's PITT monochrome crayons hark back to this long tradition of figure drawing, which is why the crayons designed for sketching are harder than conventional pastel crayons. For this reason, the lines do not disappear completely when smudged. The sanguine and sepia crayons are supplemented by oil-free and oil-based drawing pencils for sketching and details.
