Blick Presents: Prismacolor Pencils – Verithin, Art Stix and Colored Pencils

Prismacolor Colored Pencils

Prismacolor Colored Pencils are the most popular colored pencils we sell. Each colored pencil features a thick, soft core made from brilliant, light-resistant pigments, to ensure smooth, rich laydown and color saturation. The colors are easily blended, slow to wear, break-resistant, and waterproof. Each 3.8 mm core is enclosed in a round cedar casing that is lacquered to match the core.

Choose from a variety of sets — or replenish your favorites with the individual colored pencils listed below. Set contents are listed on the Item Specs tab of this page. Note — Set contents may occasionally vary from the colors listed. Note — Manual sharpening is recommended for these pencils. Clogging can be prevented in electric sharpeners by periodically sharpening a graphite pencil to keep the blades clean.

Prismacolor Verithin Pencils

These pencils are brilliantly colored and can be sharpened to a very fine point with no crumbling. The firm, insoluble pigments lay down smoothly. Each pencil is hexagonal, and the wood case is color-coded. Pencils are sold unsharpened.

Prismacolor Art Stix

Prismacolor Art Stix are artist-quality woodless colored pencils for every level of expertise. They contain high-quality pigments for rich color saturation, with soft cores that equal the creamy consistency of Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils for superior blending and shading. Especially suited for color coverage of large areas, Art Stix offer a bold, smooth laydown of color.

They measure 3¼” × ¼” (82 mm × 6 mm) and can be sharpened to a point for detailed work. They’re available in a range of colors that matches Prismacolor’s Premier Colored Pencils, Verithin Colored Pencils, and Watercolor Colored Pencil palettes.
