Christine Coleman question

[lynnieb]

when Christine was colouringt in the other day, she was using a pencil with a hard wax lead. Does anyone know what it is called?

I didn't see the show but have you checked her website or maybe you could email her

i'll give it a go

The colour pencils Christine seems to use most often on Ideal World are called Polychromos and made by Faber Castell and are of a professional quality.

Here is a link to one site that sells them. Like the Prismacolor pencils by Sanford in the US, and the Artists Pencils by Derwent, they are not cheap.

Hi

If its the one I seen , after colouring she likes to get a "sheen" and used a pencil called a splender blender , I have seen it in craft shops but I am sure Christine would have it on her website too.

Hope that helps
