Pentel Art Crayon 16-Color Set PTAC-16

"ART CRAYON 16-Color Set" includes eight bright mid-tone colors that are difficult to blend. Eight new bright mid-tone colors have been added to the Art Crayon line, which allows you to create oil painting-like expressions with just eight colors!

By combining these with existing colors, you can achieve rich and diverse expressions reminiscent of Impressionist paintings.

Mixing gray with other colors reduces saturation while maintaining brightness, giving your artwork a subdued tone. It's also recommended for portraits.

Orange and pale vermilion, when added to skies and forests, add calm, softness, and depth to your work.

In addition, by combining three greens - Veronise Green, Sap Green, and the existing Viridian—you can depict a variety of tree expressions, such as sunlit and shady areas.

16-Color Set

Key Features

"Mixing Colors"

Through repeated adjustments, we've created an optimal texture for each color.

Its excellent spreadability allows for beautiful color blending and shading.

"Overlaying Colors"

Easily layer light colors over dark colors.

Vivid color reproduction for both light and dark colors.

The pigments that make up the colors are tiny particles.

Pentel's long history in art supplies has led to the development of unique techniques for evenly dispersing pigments.

Thanks to its dispersion technology, Art Crayons achieve vivid color reproduction in both light and dark colors. A comfortable touch for drawing and painting.

While school crayons have a firmer feel, Art Crayons have a softer feel, making them smooth even when covering large areas. By adjusting the amount of pressure you apply, you can create thin or thick lines as you wish.

Whether drawing lines or painting, they're comfortable, and we've pursued an unprecedented smooth and moist drawing experience. A new formulation that reduces residue and prevents messes.

When drawing, excess crayon residue tends to scatter around the surface. Pentel has been working to improve quality to reduce this residue. Art Crayons adhere easily to paper and have excellent adhesion, reducing residue so you can draw without worrying about messes.

As with the 8-color set, the packaging artwork is a work created by Shibasaki using these 16 colors. The soft, fluffy texture of cat fur is expressed only with 16 colors. 

You can display them like a painting and bring art into your daily life.
