Caran dAche Classic Neocolor II Water-Soluble Pastels, 15 Colors

I love using these crayons. I am not a professional so I have no expectations or experience to compare to but the colors are beautiful and I am having a lot of fun. Highly recommend.

Interesting. Disappointed that there is no black, grays or browns.

I read the reviews and watched the demos on utube so naturally I was really excited about getting them. Well that was a big waste of excitement. I found them much duller in color than inktense and I never could get any brilliance to come thru. It just looked anemic and faded. I had to go over them with inktense just to have some vibrancy. I just didn’t care for them and they’re so expensive I tried every way I knew how to make them work. Nope. Didn’t do it for me.

Amazing color!

I purchased the water soluble Caran dACHE crayons of Switzerland from Amazon. They are indeed fun to work with. They are a crayon yet you can add a wet paintbrush to the colored picture and change it into a water color or use a damp brush on the crayon directly taking color from the crayon to the paper. Like using regular water color paints but taking up less room. Very nice product with or without water. They arrived quickly and in perfect condition.

Love, love love these! One of the students in my art class brought a set of these in and after seeing my teachers delight I just had to buy a set to try. You can draw and color with them like regular crayons but then you take a damp/wet paintbrush and turn your picture in to a painting ~ or you can draw something on top of your panting; then wet a brush and gently go over whatever you draw and it becomes part of the picture! Beautiful colors that you can control the intensity of. After seeing how beautiful the colors were I am sorry I didnt invest in the larger set!

Love these combo crayons/watercolors. They are easy to use & blend beautifully. I do think they run high & wonder if i will buy again. When you need just one color they tend to run between 8.00- 12.00 each. Thats alot for a waxy product. If you can find them at a good price buy them but think twice paying retail.

Love these crayons but would recommend you buy individually from Dick Blick or Jerrys artarama so you can pick the colors you want. Obviously the crayon itself is great - high quality, beautiful color, Love them. Use them a lot in my mixed media

Perfect for multimedia art. Love they mix with water

I’ve wanted these for quite awhile and finally got them with birthday gift certificates. They’re long lasting, vibrantly colored, easy to disperse with water, and so much fun to play around with! A lot like using crayons when you were a kid. They’ll bring a smile to your face and take you down memory lane lol! Pricey because they’re Caran D’Ache but good lightfastness and quality.
