Good Value for Beginners and Budget Conscious Artists

Pencils are creamy, colors blend well, works great with mineral spirits. Bright colors. Some of the darks aren't as dark as I would like, however. Some colors crumble and with others the lead is very soft and wears down quickly. In 2 months, I have worn down several pencils to less than half size, will need extenders to hold them after next trip to sharpener. Wish these were available in open stock. Great value.
