MegaColor Artists Colouring Pencils: Where Comfort and Artistry Converge

The new MegaColor Artists Colouring Pencils from Cretacolor are a testament to the fusion of innovation and inclusivity. These extra-thick pencils boast an impressive 6.4mm lead diameter, making them a perfect fit for young aspiring artists with small hands as well as for those seeking easy-to-grip options, especially individuals with arthritis. Moreover, the larger size of these pencils opens up a world of opportunities for artists who love to work on a grand scale, delivering bold and vibrant results.

A Kaleidoscope of Techniques and Applications

The MegaColor Artists Colouring Pencils are more than just drawing tools; they are instruments of artistic exploration. With their remarkable features, artists can dive into a plethora of techniques and applications, including:

  1. Layered Excellence for Captivating Depth

Discover the magic of layering with the MegaColor pencils. Each color can be layered on top of another, offering subtle variations in tone – from radiant brilliance to deep intensity. The result? A palette that's as rich and diverse as your imagination.

  1. Textured Stories Through Layered Colours

Infuse your artwork with dimension and texture through the art of layering. Watch as the light hues become translucent and the dark shades transform into an opaque marvel. Every stroke builds a new layer of storytelling in your artwork.

  1. Mixed Media Marvels Unleashed

The MegaColor permanent colouring pencils seamlessly integrate with various mediums, including water-soluble pencils, acrylics, sketching ink, and beyond. Unleash your mixed media experiments and elevate your creations to unprecedented heights.

  1. Expressive Shading from Every Angle

Craft shading that speaks volumes. With the MegaColor pencils, shading can be achieved from any angle – diagonal, horizontal, or vertical – infusing your art with depth and emotion that draws the viewer in.

 

Honoring Heritage: The Legacy of CRETACOLOR

Gordon Harris takes pride in curating top-tier artistic tools, and our partnership with Cretacolor is a testament to that commitment. Cretacolor's story is one of visionary pioneers and artistic passion. Established in 1863 by industrialist Carl Brevillier, the Zeus graphite pencil factory revolutionized access to quality drawing and writing tools, making art more accessible to the masses.

The legacy continued when Hans Wolfgang Hromatka acquired the "Pencil Factory Hirm" in 1996, breathing new life into historical pencils and laying the foundation for Cretacolor's journey as a premier art material brand. The subsequent acquisition of Brevillier-Urban in 2008 united expertise and led to the birth of Brevillier Urban & Sachs, further solidifying the brand's commitment to excellence.
