The Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA) further defines a colored pencil as having other characteristics. Colored pencil cores are made from an oil or wax based medium that has pigment, binding agents, and additives. They can be sharpened just like regular pencils. Instead, the entire pencil is core, covered in a thin lacquer coating. However, there are “woodless” pencils, meaning they lack a wooden shaft on the outside. What is a colored pencil anyway? According to Wikipedia, a colored pencil is an art medium that consists of a narrow pigmented core that is encased in a wooden shaft. This article will attempt to answer these questions and provide a simple guide for the different types of pencils that are out there today.įirst, we start with the definition. What exactly is the difference between all these pencils, and why do some cost so much more than others? As someone who uses primarily colored pencils in their art, I feel like this is a good topic to cover. You ask for recommendations from your artist friends and get ten different answers. You don’t know what brand or kind to get. There are so many different types of colored pencils on the market today.
