Derwent Inktense Individual Blocks

Derwent Inktense blocks are intensely vibrant, watersoluble blocks that have been formulated to dry permanently, offering exceptional layering capability without dissolving previously dried layers of vivid colour. Just like the pencils, colours are highly-pigmented and can be used dry, or mixed with water which is when the colour becomes even more intense. The colours retain vibrancy after drying, creating ink-like effects. Once dry the colour is permanent and you can work over the top of it. Derwent Inktense is highly versatile and can be applied to many porous surfaces including ceramic, wood and fabric Suitable for use on paper and fabrics (ideal on silk and cotton) for a wide range of fine art and craft projects.

Permanent when dry – doesn’t washout like watercolour. Layer up intense vibrant colours.

The blocks complement the Inktense range perfectly opening up an exciting world of endless possibilities. They can also be used on fabric to create stunning silk paintings and quilts.

We suggest using a watercolour sketchbook along side refillable waterbrushes for instant and convenient access to powerful ink washes when inspiration strikes or you're out and about.
