our inspiration

The Lake District, Cumbria, where generations of artists, poets and writers have been lured by its beautiful valleys and dramatic peaks; landscapes that have inspired Ruskin and Wordsworth, the pathways of Wainwright and the lakes of Swallows & Amazons. Its a land that has cradled the discovery of graphite and the development of pencil making. Over the generations, The Cumberland Pencil Company has evolved the simple pencil into a range of diverse and innovative products to suit every kind of artist from aspiring amateur to dedicated professional. What motivates us today, is not only our surroundings, but also seeing how our customers create amazing results using our pencils, from simple sketches to wonderful watercolours; intricate line-work to modern metallic effects. You too can be inspired today by using the worlds finest pencils - Derwent.

inktense blocks
Vibrant strokes of ink-like colour
This year sees the Inktense Blocks range extended to 72 colours widening your painting possibilities. These chunky water-soluble ink blocks will bring a new sense of freedom and colour to your drawing and painting. Dry Derwent Inktense delivers pure vibrant colour but when completely washed out it is transformed into a translucent ink-like paint which, when dry, can be worked over. The blocks are extremely versatile and can be used for a wide range of creative effects. You can use them like pans of paint, dip them in water and apply colour directly to the paper, use dry on their side or apply directly to wet paper for instant intense colour.

They can also be used on fabric to create stunning silk paintings and quilts.

Sarah Taylor

Its really exciting to work with Inktense in this format; being able to work on a larger scale with this wonderfully versatile product is extremely inspiring. They are a complete joy to use; there are so

many creative possibilities that working with these Inktense blocks is an adventure every time!

Pencil to ink in just one wash


Pen and ink offers strong, intense colour combined with a translucent effect. Now you can enjoy these distinctive qualities in an easy to use pencil. Inktense has a highly blendable texture and comes in a range of jewel-like colours, plus a non-soluble outliner which allows you to draw outlines that are permanent, even when water is applied. Apply pure, vibrant dry colour then wash the pigment out completely to leave an ink-like effect. Once dry, the colour is permanent and can be worked over with other media. The possibilities are endless, the results stunning. Inktense pencils can be used on fabric to create interesting silk paintings and unique quilting projects.

Working with Inktense Pencils is pure joy. When painting the peacock, I found the luminescence of the colours allowed me to build many glazes of different colours to suggest the luminosity of the peacock

feathers without the fear of any colours lifting.

Make your own mark
With a beautiful creamy consistency, these triangular bars of solid, highly pigmented colour offer the artist so much creative potential. They feel luxuriously smooth as they release consistently rich, deep pigment. The wax based bars are also completely water-soluble and dry marks almost seem to melt under your brush. Used either dry or wet, Artbar opens up a world of expressive mark making and rich opaque colour.

Glyn Macey

Water-soluble wax bars go against everything I was ever taught in my Chemistry lessons, and they dont half produce a fantastic result. I LOVE Artbars! They enable me to produce work that is impossible with other mediums.

The beauty of watercolour, the precision of pencil
A premium Watercolour pencil that has a soft texture ideal for both wet and dry work. More colour can be laid down quickly with less effort and the washes go further, they are strong and brilliantly soluble. The colours in the Watercolour range can also be found in the Artists and Studio ranges.

Graham Brace

These Watercolour Pencils have a softer texture and are easier to apply than their predecessors resulting in excellent coverage. The entire range gives rich, deep, creamy, luxuriant colours which prevail when water is added. They perform admirably in

all applications...both wet and dry. Consequently, they have earned a permanent place beside my drawing board.

Paint in a stick
Watercolour pencils are amazingly versatile and Aquatone offers four times more useable material than a wood cased pencil. This solid stick of pure, water-soluble colour can be used wet or dry, and you can apply broad sweeps of colour in seconds. For even faster colour lay down, simply peel off the protective wrapper and apply Aquatone on its side. Aquatone will give you many hours of creative pleasure. Aquatone colours are the same as those in the Watercolour pencil range so they complement each other perfectly.

artists
Freedom of expression with the ultimate colour range
This is the first colour pencil Derwent ever developed in the 1930s. Its traditional round barrel and wide core makes it perfect for broad strokes and free, expressive drawing. Artists slightly waxy texture is ideal for multiple layering and blending to produce an infinite spectrum of subtly different hues and tints. If you prefer a crisper, more precise drawing style try our Studio pencil range which has a slim hexagonal barrel making it easy to grip. The Studio core is identical to Artists so they complement each other perfectly.

Malcolm Cudmore

I build up tone and colour with a lot of cross-hatching and like to work on fairly smooth surfaces. I like the individual colours and marks that I use to be evident in the finished work and, with these pencils, I feel I have a great deal of control over how much colour is put down at any

time. Derwent Artists pencils are perfect for me - the range of colours is superb, the barrels are a good size and very comfortable for sustained use - especially as my work can take some time to complete!

studio
Precise, perfect colour
If you like the texture and blendability of
Artists colour pencils, but prefer a crisper, more precise drawing style, this pencil is for you. Studio shares the same colour core as Artists, but is slimmer and the wood barrel is hexagonal rather than round. The result? A colour pencil that is easy to grip and particularly suited to detailed illustration work, such as botanical studies, architectural drawing and graphic design. All these disciplines tend to be studio-based hence the name.

Irina Garmashova

The hexagonal shape of Studio pencils make them easy to hold for complete control. I was able to produce thinner lines than with other Derwent pencils, and even with a thinner line, Derwent Studio maintains the same intensity of

colour. The colours in the range blend together easily and help you reach any result you can imagine.

coloursoft
UKs softest ever colour pencil
The softest of pencils in a strong and vibrant range of 72 new Derwent colours. The velvety softness of the core releases rich, dense colour at a stroke and is perfect for mixing and blending. Despite its soft texture, Coloursoft sharpens to a fine point and works equally well for detailed illustrations or bold, contemporary still-life drawings and portraiture.

Nicole Caulfield

I choose Coloursoft pencils for their quick build up, saturated colour and their blendibility. Their soft leads allow me to finish drawings quicker and with intense results. Usually I work in more traditional neutral colours but I wanted to show how

brilliant the colours could be with Derwent Coloursoft pencils. It was great fun to let the colours of the pencils shine.

Pastel beauty, pencil control
Nothing beats the colourful brilliance of pastels but theyre not always the cleanest medium to use. Now you can enjoy all the beauty of pastel in a convenient, less messy form. These wood cased Pastel Pencils have a soft, powdery texture which produces a velvety smooth finish, ideal for mixing and blending. And because theyre pencils, theyre clean and easy to control although you may not be able to resist the occasional smudge with your finger! Pastel pencils are extremely popular for portrait work, so we have put together a tin of 12 pencils especially for creating portraits. The Pastel pencils Skintones set is ideal for drawing people.

Dario Schifano

Derwent Pastel Pencils are certainly the finest I have tried; they are absolutely the best compromise between softness and strength which allows for very detailed drawings and at the same time, soft gradients and layering of colours that you can

hardly achieve with other pastel pencils.

Bold, broad colour at a stroke
For authentic pastel drawings with quick, easy colour lay down, these chunky pastel blocks are perfect. Their square shape and smooth, semi hard texture means you can use the ends, sides or edges to produce both broad and fine lines. Although not as powdery as soft pastels, the effect is equally beautiful and the unique colourless Derwent Blending White allows you to blend the colours easily without affecting their density.

Black graphite pencils ideal for dark sketches


Derwent Onyx is made from smooth, dark graphite and delivers dense, rich, jet- black tones, darker than a Graphic 9B. Due to its non-crumbly texture, the 4mm wide core is capable of sharpening and holding a fine point. This makes it equally good for quick expressive sketches, as well as detailed technical and architectural drawings. Darker shades can be built up by applying increased pressure. For lighter, more detailed artwork apply less pressure. Available in two tones, Medium and Dark.

Water-soluble graphite in a stick


If you like working in graphite, youll love Watersoluble Graphitone. Its a pencil-shaped stick of pure, artist quality water-soluble graphite which can be used just like a conventional pencil or broken into chunks to create broad sweeps of tone or subtle graphite washes. Graphitone is easy to use as its protective wrap simply peels away to expose as much or as little graphite as you need. And because the entire stick is 100% useable material, its very economical too!

Robust blocks for creative expression


Working with a block of solid graphite is hugely satisfying, encouraging you to create quick, dramatic sketches and atmospheric line drawings. Natural Graphite has a slightly dusty quality, so it blends very easily. As a block, Natural Graphite has impressive covering power and can be used on its side for a solid sweep of tone or for fine lines when used on its edge.

graphitint
Subtle dry tones, deep rich washes
If youd like to introduce some colour to your
graphite drawings, this pencil does it all! Used dry, Graphitint provides just a hint of colour but adding water literally transforms the tint into rich, vibrant colour. Graphitint has the same properties as our 4B Watersoluble Sketching pencil so it will appeal to artists looking to add a colourful dimension to their graphite drawings but retain all the familiar qualities of their favourite graphite pencil.

Linda Weil

I have lots of pencils and I love them all, but I think I love my Graphitint pencils best of all! With a smooth drawing feel and a lovely subdued colour tone in the dry state, they explode with excitement when you add water. I use dry for subtle colour,

washed to create tone, wet in wet for a bright statement, or even mixed with graphite pencils for great effects - they are extremely versatile and a joy to use.

They enable you to produce a wide variety of creative effects, from rich, deep tones to a translucent-like mist, adding an imaginative twist to any charcoal drawing.

Carole Gordon

Tinted charcoal is a great addition to the Derwent range of charcoal. The dark subtle colours can be extended with the use of white into a lovely range of muted tones. The pencils can be sharpened for detailed work and smudged and blended for a

lovely range of effects. They can give crisp sharp lines or soft misty areas to give lively or soft aspects to your drawing.

From powerful lines, to subtle gradients, Derwent XL Charcoal combines the natural qualities of charcoal with the strength and body of a chunky block. Soft meets strong; agile meets bold; the perfect blend of rich tones and organic marks. They produce everything from broad, sweeping marks to the most delicate lines. Feel how smoothly they blend, try layering colours or even adding water.

David Winning

As a painter, these chunky XL blocks are a painters dream delivering enormous swatches of rich colour. On a damp surface they release a creamy strip of live pigment, which when dry can be re-worked with layers of contrasting colour and

marks. Blend colour with a stump or by hand, or removing sections with an eraser, water, wire wool or sandpaper. Working with them is a truly rewarding creative experience.

Ian Hodgson

Incredibly versatile, the blocks are capable of creating a wide range of textures and effects from subtle blending and sensitive line work through expressive mark making to the densest of tones and shading. I often work with an eraser, rubbing, manipulating and working back

into the graphite and these blocks respond beautifully to this technique. An absolute pleasure to use, the chunky graphite blocks have opened up exciting new possibilities for my art practice, I cant get enough of them!

The Fur and Feather Pencil
This is drawing at its most natural, both in the exquisite colour range and the creative potential of this unique pencil. Drawing has an extra wide, creamy textured core which produces a beautifully soft, velvety finish. It is the perfect medium for wildlife and nature studies, and is seen by many artists as the ideal pencil to draw fur & feather. But it is also ideal for rich subtle landscapes and deep, thoughtful portraits.

Stephen Ormerod

Joanne Kell

I love the rich waxy texture of the drawing range. They are ideal for layering, creating deep texture when drawing both fur and feathers. It is possible to work several layers using different tones for a realistic finish.

They are my favourite pencils and an absolute joy to work with.

Blender
If you want to create a subtle blend of colours then the Derwent Blender is the ideal accessory. It allows you to blend two

or more colours together to create a new colour. At the same time it physically mixes and smoothes the colours so individual strokes and hard edges are softened.

Made from rubber they slide onto the block, holding it securely, making it comfortable to use while you are working and keep your hands clean! Available in two sizes, the small grippers come in a pack of 3 and the XL grippers in a pack of 2.

Grate n Shake
Have fun with the Derwent Grate n Shake. Designed for use with Inktense Blocks the Grate n Shake allows you to mix paint and create your own colours. Grate the Inktense Blocks into water and then shake the container to mix the pigment. The Grate n Shake is ideal for creating translucent colour washes or painting ink to cover large areas. It can also be used with Aquatone Sticks.

Sprinkler
Make your own Graphite and Charcoal powder! Simply rub your XL block across the Sprinklers surface to create a fine powder. Sprinkle directly over your work to create different textural effects, or collect in a pot to finger paint with or add water to make a painterly wash.

Groove Cube
For creating expressive lines with Derwent XL; run your Derwent XL block along one of the ridge sections to carve grooves in the block surface. See what line pattern appears on your paper and let your imagination go!

Shave n Save
This ingenious little tool is designed for use with the Artbar range. It is designed to sharpen and shape your Artbar to suit your requirements. The container collects all the shavings and you can save them for later use; sprinkling them over a wet or damp painting and pushing them into the surface to create interesting effects and texture.

Spritzer
The Spritzer adds a new creative dimension to your water based work. Spray water directly over water-soluble drawings to create interesting textures, colour runs and dribble effects. You can also dissolve colour pigment in the Grate n Shake (Inktense or Watercolour for example) fill the spritzer and spray colour straight onto your image. Many artists will also spray water lightly over paintings to maintain a wet workable area.

watercolour paper
Developed especially for water-soluble pencils, this smooth paper is perfect for all water-soluble media including Inktense Blocks and Artbar. The smooth surface also provides an excellent base for detailed watercolours and dry pencil work.

Paper surface
The most important aspect of the development of our new watercolour paper was to create a surface that welcomes both pencils and water. A rough surface is not suitable for pencil work as the texture of the paper interferes with the drawing. The areas of rough texture will leave a white mark which means it takes a lot more effort to cover the paper. Pencils need a smooth surface with the perfect amount of tooth in the surface to pick up the pigment from the pencil as it glides over the smooth surface with ease.

Lakeland pencils have been firm favourites with generations of children and its easy to see why. They combine consistently high quality with excellent value for money, and theres a great choice of products too! From chunky, easy grip pencils for toddlers to ultra slim colour pencils for detailed work, Lakeland is the brand to trust.

Graphite Pencils
Sketching is one of the simplest but most enjoyable pastimes for children of all ages. Lakeland Graphite provides the ideal introduction to this rewarding pursuit. It has a slim hexagonal barrel so it does not roll off the desk and comes in five versatile degrees to suit all types of drawing. For younger children, Lakeland Jumbo has a large hexagonal barrel and break resistant graphite core.

Painting Pencils
One of the most exciting developments in art has been the introduction of water-soluble colour pencils and our Lakeland version was one of the first. Lakeland Painting can be used dry just like normal colour pencils, but brush over your drawing with a wetted paintbrush and it magically turns into a painting.
