Our take on the Winsor & Newton Studio Collection Colored Pencils Set of 72

The Winsor & Newton Studio Collection is a 72-pencil colored pencil set aimed at students, hobbyists and artists moving up from budget pencils. The cores are water-based, so you can blend and wash them with a damp brush for watercolor-style effects. The range covers a broad spread of hues, including skin tones and muted earths, in a tin that keeps the set organized. Against artist-grade rivals like Faber-Castell Polychromos or Caran d'Ache Pablo, the cores are softer and less lightfast, but the set costs far less and suits practice and mixed-media work.

Questions and answers

Are these pencils watercolor pencils?
Yes. The cores are water-based, so marks can be blended and washed with a damp brush. Use heavier paper if you plan to wet them heavily.
How do they compare with artist-grade pencils like Polychromos?
They are softer and less lightfast than artist-grade pencils, so they suit practice and studies better than archival work. The trade-off is a much lower cost for a full 72-color range.
Who is this set for?
Students, beginners and hobbyists who want a wide palette and watercolor effects. Experienced artists doing finished, long-lasting work will want harder, more lightfast pencils.
Do the pencils come in a tin?
Yes, the set is packed in a tin with molded slots that hold the pencils in order and make the set easy to carry.
Can I use them for dry blending too?
Yes, but the soft cores smudge and blend less cleanly dry than harder artist pencils. A blending pencil or solvent helps.
How many colors are in the set?
72 pencils, covering a broad range of hues plus neutrals and skin tones.
Where is the Winsor & Newton Studio Collection Colored Pencils Set of 72 cheapest?
At Michaels, for $109.99, as of our latest check.
