The basic tool used by every artist! Pencils are perhaps the most common drawing instruments that artists tend to use to plan and sketch their artwork. Sometimes, they are used from beginning to end, creating wonderful black and white drawings or full-color illustrations. Pencils can also be used in combination with other mediums like watercolor, gouache, pastels, and much more! And if you need to clean-up an area or correct a mistake, there are plenty of erasers to choose from. They are quite handy to have. Don't forget to grab a sharpener and other accessories to make your drawing experience a terrific one!
