First Look at the NEW Derwent Drawing set of 72!

Hi friends! Look what just came in the mail!

I will have a live stream today at 12 noon Eastern Time to unbox, swatch, and create some artwork with these pencils. This is totally unplanned, but there is so much excitement about these pencils I couldn’t wait! You can watch the livestream or replay in the player below, but if you want to chat live during the stream, be sure to view it on the YouTube watch page.

Here is how the stream will go:

• Intro Unboxing Swatching the colors on white, toned gray, and black paper

• Q&A

• Artwork demo on toned tan paper (have any colored pencils and paper ready and sketch along!)

• Q&A Wrap-up

• *Replay viewers can jump around to get the info they want.

If you have questions during the stream, please post them in the live chat on YouTube and format them like this:

QUESTION: When will the pencils be available for purchase?

This way I can spot them in the lively chat and answer them when I take the 2 breaks.

What I know so far:

• 72 colors in the range

• Sold in sets and open stock

• All colors are lightfast

• Will be available at Blick and the Derwent Website on October 1st! (Blick has the current 24 colors open stock and in sets on sale for 50% off!)

• I do not know what the pricing will be, but retail is currently 2.59 GBP or $3.69 USD per pencil. I suspect the pencils will launch at full price and then go on sale later as demand goes down.

I hope to see you at noon! Til then, Happy Crafting!
