## Description

Derwent Inktense Blocks are perfect for illustrators, designers, and students. The 8mm square block combines versatile function with vivid colour. Use the block edge for fine details or the side to cover large surface areas quickly. The unique water soluble pigment can be used for vibrant drawings, or used with a wet brush to lift colour directly from the block. As the pigments dry quickly, there’s no need to worry about colour bleeding. Perfect for colour layering. Plus, as the colour dries permanently, it’s great on fabrics, such as silk or cotton. It can also easily be used on paper. Modify the use to fit your next project. The integrated palette is perfect for creating custom colours. Make unique blends by mixing dry blocks together, or obtain lighter shades of the same colour by adding water. Mix to create a distinct work of art. With a heritage dating to 1832, Derwent’s innovation comes from an understanding of artists. We’ve produced a range of quality art materials, many of which are made in our British manufacturing plant.

Review: 鉛筆のダーウェントが、初の水彩パンを発売と言うことで購入しました。インクテンスは、既に、ペンシルタイプとブロックタイプを持っていますが、屋外で持ち運びに不便です。このパンは、コンパクトなサイズと気軽に使えるところが良いです。簡単に言うと、ブロックタイプをパンにした感じです。収納筆に中栓が有るのも良いです。欲を言うと、筆にキャップが有った方が良いかも（穂先保護に）
Review: I love my inktense pans,pencils and blocks. This set is highly pigmented and very easy to use. They re-wet easily and are great for plein air as they are so portable. The paints can be taken out and put in another case if you prefer but the one they come with is also very convenient and useful and you can even keep your a little water brush in it. I highly recommend these but I would say they are really not for beginners as it is permanent and not removable like watercolor. There is a learning curve with inktense or any ink.

## Features

- VERSATILE & VIBRANT – The 8mm square block combines versatility with vivid colour. Use the edge for fine details or the side to cover large surface areas quickly. Contains full range of 12 colours.
- WATER SOLUBLE – Expand your creative possibilities. When blocks are used dry, they deliver pure, vibrant colour. For different effects, use a wet brush to lift colour directly from the block.
- PERMANENT COLOUR – Pigments dry quickly and permanently when washed out, minimizing colour bleeding. Once dry, colours can be placed next to each other or layered, without fear of colour bleeding.

- COLOUR CREATION – Integrated palette is great for creating colours. Make blends by mixing colours together or obtain lighter shades of one colour by adding water. Mix to create a unique work of art.
- ACCESSORIES – For best results, combine with other Derwent products, such as Derwent Waterbrush Set, Derwent Inktense Block Spritzer and Derwent Inktense Block Grate and Shake.

ダーウェントのインクテンスブロックは、分類としては水溶性パステルですが、他社製品とはかなり違います。 「カラーインクのような発色」と謳っているとおり、とても鮮やかで深い色が出ます。 鮮やか=明るい、ではありません。 赤や青は深く明度の低い、かつ鮮やかな色が出ます。 黄色は蛍光色のように鮮やかで明るいです（イメージです） 24色セットには白もありますが、白を混ぜた色はほとんどありません。 ダイレクトに描いて、水筆で濃くのばすことができます。 固形水彩のように、筆先をつけて淡彩にすることもできます。 描き心地はなめらかで、粉落ちも気になりませんが、 描いた後はグラシン紙などで保護する必要があります。 とにかく配色、発色が独特なのでオススメです。
