"You don't have to be a great sketcher to get started. All you need is some creativity and an open mind.
You need a sketching pencil set that can enhance your creativity to a new level"
-Colore Art
I was given Colore Art 26-Piece Drawing Set for free in exchange for a honest review. I honestly LOVED these pencils, the only thing I didn't like was that they only came in one color instead of multiple colors. I say this because I like to color with colors, but I enjoyed using Colore solely and mixing it with color pencils I already own. I had no problems using these pencils.
They are well made and are extremely smooth, I experienced no loose pieces of charcoal or "bumps in my drawings and rough sketches. Also my pencils didn't break under my daughter or my own usage. I tried to use techniques that I have learned over the years to show the abilities of these pencils and I hope that I did it justice. I brought a drawing notebook specifically for the usage of these pencils and I am pleased with my experience.
It does come with a chart that shows you exactly the "hardness" of each pencil in a color chart, which is helpful if you don't really know or forget which pencil to use for shading or shaping your images. My favorite part was sitting down, having a moment and feeling like a real artist with a proper pencil set. I used the 3 charcoal pencils and the 3 charcoal sticks the most (mostly because they made me feel more artsy). I also liked the graphite pencil and the organization of the case. I liked how the pencils felt in my hand and I also liked the 2 sharpeners one for the pencils and one for the sharpeners.
My daughter and myself tried very hard to do a #30dayartchallenge but unfortunately we became very popular, highly demanded (for school projects) and have to still prepare and study for state tests. I limited my time to 30 minutes to complete my challenge of the day and I am pretty proud of myself. I am no longer as good as I use to be, but I can still make my daughters say "wow". And that my folks is good enough for me :) .
So for your viewing pleasure here are pictures of my art work :
