Luminance Colour Pencils



I was recently gifted this set of Luminance Colour pencils from Carah d'Ache. I've had a few singles for some time and it was instant love.

They are very smooth and the colours very intense plus have an excellent light-fastness. I have a drawing in process where I used 2 reds in this series and they haven't faded a bit yet. I used to have a bit of issues with red often fading after some time. It never occurred to me just how important it is to have light resistant colour pencils. I'm still using my other colour pencils as I've always mixed many brands as all seem to have their great colours and put together works perfect.

I highly recommend these for any colour pencil lover! :)

I've not seen these ones before. I have their gouache paints which are great but might dabble into their other ranges now that you've mentioned it.
