Loving the Color~ and the value!

LOVE THIS PRODUCT - the vibrant colors are great fun for me, as I learn crafting with watercolor. While I would like a container liner with a little more bulk (support) and some paint mixing trays in the lid..... I can manage - to enjoy this level of color and ease. I just wet my brush, make a few swipes across the color stick... swash it on my palette or directly onto my product. I like using it from my palette, so I can water it down a little there, before beginning to apply to my project --- if I'm wanting a diluted or blended effect. They seem they will last A LONG TIME........ and for me (on a limited budget) THAT 'goes a long way' (pun intended... ha ha). Shop around for your prices.... but, THIS give you the intensity that you may want, with the ability to tone it down (with water) if you want more 'mute' - more pastel and classic watercolor look. I'm VERY NEW to painting - and NEVER thought I could. This set will give me lots of product to practice with and not be afraid of 'wasting' paint, as I learn. SO GLAD I BOUGHT.............Read full review

Hoping for more intense color

I was excited to get these blocks, I thought that the colors would be more intense. The blocks break easily, (no big Deal). I guess I was expecting more vibrant color. I wanted to use these on cotton for a quilt top, but just couldn't get the colors that I wanted. Perhaps I was doing something wrong. Maybe if you lay down a base coat of white and then proceed with the color it will look better. I was testing on white 100 % cotton, so I didn't think it was necessary to lay down a base coat of white paint.
Maybe I just need more practice time.
I think I thought they would be more like a textile paint in chalk form.

Made it easy to find.

The product is great quality. Some were broken, but that didn't diminish their ability to work as intended. Maybe it is just the nature of their consistency.

I love the Derwent intense products! I’ve used the pencils for years but just ordered the blocks! They are great and can be used in a variety of ways with the same vibrant delicious color!
