A hot pressed watercolour paper (HP) is ideal. For precise photorealistic artwork consider a good quality bristol vellum paper which will provide an excellent flat foundation for the rich pigments in the range. Toned papers offer a subtle texture, providing a neutral background that makes highlights pop and allow you to achieve shadows and depth quicker than a white paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRange: \u003c\/strong\u003eLuminance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePack size: \u003c\/strong\u003eSet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication: \u003c\/strong\u003eDrawing, Illustration\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type: \u003c\/strong\u003ePencil\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caran d'Ache","offers":[{"title":"Set 12","offer_id":67678241063046,"sku":"0184980","price":116.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set 20","offer_id":67678241095814,"sku":"0184990","price":197.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set 40","offer_id":67678241128582,"sku":"0185020","price":382.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/7213\/7350\/files\/0184980.jpg?v=1791953827","url":"https:\/\/www.eckersleys.co.nz\/products\/caran-dache-luminance-6901-pencil-sets","provider":"Eckersley's Art \u0026 Craft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
