Lay down smooth iridescent colour, make images jump off dark paper, blend for a glistening sheen
Developed by our artists to excite you, the Metallic Pencils set opens up a parallel universe of 48 other-worldly colours to add glimmer, glamour, shining highlights and details to your artwork. See the 20-page Handbook for tips.
Make images jump off dark paper, blend for a glistening sheen, bring a touch of mystery to myriad surfaces from metal to stones to canvas - just some of the unique techniques metallics make possible… explore your own.
Lay down smooth iridescent colour, vary pressure to control density and employ strokes like hatching, cross-hatching, contouring and stippling – or press down on break-resistant leads to achieve that rich, burnished sheen.
Mighty Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland, England, goes back to the 6th century AD and now houses the gallery where our resident artist Peter Phillips exhibits. A painter of global repute, he and his team of artists specify our art supplies, create our Guides and Tutorials, produce our videos and provide practical advice and know-how born of a lifelong love of art.
You’ll get more out of everything because we put more into everything. In our dedicated studios our artistic and technical staff test competitive brands, and where they fall short, we develop better materials – in the formulation and selection of pigments; the touch, feel and comfort in use; tools, packaging and presentation that look and work better.
Join our loyal and ever-growing global family of Castle Artists who stay in regular touch with each other and ourselves through emails, social media, our savvy Customer Services team and the Castle Club - sharing experiences, tips and creative inspiration by exhibiting their art on our website Gallery.
