They are so smooth. Like buttah!! :) also get a hold of a colorless blender to really rock your world. They blend out the stereotypical colored pencil look and give you smooth painterly effects. Also use a hand held pencil sharpener to conserve your pencils. <br />For my high school kids I get all Prismacolor pencils <br />I would never buy store brand art supplies- ever. Usually crayola is a great brand, but I don't use their colored pencils for art <br />Great Articledebiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252867857089161414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377582441405318696.post-24539420467889036432015-08-20T16:52:55.260-04:002015-08-20T16:52:55.260-04:00This is my problem with colored pencils.

We've only used Crayola but the leads are always falling out and when you sharpen them they don't get sharp evenly so you have a sharp angle of wood that scratches the paper if you dont' hold them in the right direction. Ugh! Does another brand sharpen better?Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07331732943613936677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377582441405318696.post-26625897120675778862015-08-19T14:44:02.639-04:002015-08-19T14:44:02.639-04:00Thanks for the tip!
