Favourite Five- Derwent Lightfast. Swatch and then a real time sketch!

Another winner from the Derwent stable is the Lightfast pencil range. I am a muted colour fan and these wonderful pencils play directly to that love so they will always be part of my kit.
But which are the outstanding ones? In this series where I choose my favourite five colours (plus the odd hon. mention) from each type of media, my next list is the five colours of Lightfast pencils that I cannot leave home without.
We have a quick swatching session and then on to the sketch where I show you in real time how I use Derwent Lightfast. Enjoy!

    That one was sent to me by DecoArt in America. They are great brushes too- dome blenders by name. If you cannot find them or if they are not around anymore (sadly this does sometimes happen), deerfoot blenders are great too. I am planning a couple of fave 5s on brushes and I will make sure that i include them. D xx
