Repurposed Vintage

I took AP Art twice in high school.
That was when I got my first set of "real" artist pencils, the Derwent Graphic set.
This tin is from 1993-4.

This tin got extremely banged up in my locker.
And I still use it.

Until tonight, it even had Derwent pencils in it.


I got some Tombow graphite pencils because Kevin Wueste recommends them, and some General's charcoal pencils because they are cool.  I added in the General's white charcoal (best white chalk pencil ever, forever a classic) and a sanguine conte pencil.

There are 2 erasers in the far left slots... my Tombow pencils came with a 2.3mm detail eraser, how cool is that?


This is how I keep the tin next to me during drawing, now with switched out pencils.

  1. It looks like lots of fun... I love seeing other people's art supplies and how they use them. Cool.
