Explore the possibilities of Wax Aquarell
Discover with us the charm of Wax Aquarell pastels with perfect drawing properties.
These Wax Aquarell pastels with a thick core in wooden packaging are suitable mainly for designers, artists, and illustrators, though it certainly doesn't mean that they won't come in handy for ordinary home drawing. On the contrary! Thanks to them, even simple sketches can become true masterpieces.
The interestingness of this medium resides in the ability of the pastels that are dry to draw like ordinary wax crayons. On top of that, they are water-soluble, just like aquarelle paints. How's that?
By emulsification, the chemists at the Koh-i-noor Hardtmuth laboratories changed the properties of the wax from water resistance to water solubility. In addition to wax, the pastels also contain the highest quality pigments and bleached kaolin, guaranteeing them beautiful rich shades.
Apart from using brushes, Wax Aquarell pastels can also be diluted with a sponge, piece of cloth, sprayer, and by hand. Thanks to their wider diameter, Wax Aquarell pastels are easy to hold.
They can be used for painting on various types of paper, from aquarelle paper to glazed or textured ones. You can also use them for drawing on canvas stretched on a frame or glued to a fibreboard. When used for painting on ordinary smooth paper, you'll surely be amazed by the resulting velvety look of the artwork.
In our stores and online, Wax Aquarelle pastels are available in sets of 12 or 24 pieces, while the sets in tin boxes also contain a brush, sharpener, and graphite pencil. More experienced persons will favor some of our round brushes from the Squirrel collection you also find in our assortment.
In addition to prepared sets, the pastels can also be purchased separately, including in gold and silver colors that give the painting an attractive metallic color effect. In total, these wax aquarelle pastels are available in incredible 48 colors.

Sometimes a conversation calls for a big cheer; sometimes a small smile feels more natural. I’m the person behind Kaomoji Cove, where the happy kaomoji collection makes it easier to compare those levels of enthusiasm and copy one as text. I find mood-based browsing more useful than scrolling through a single undifferentiated list.
A car shown as a small digital avatar doesn't give fine detail much room to breathe. I'd start with one dominant color and a shape you can recognize from a distance, then see whether a second accent actually improves it. That's the sort of design exercise I'm exploring with Tesla × Wrap. The editor lets you work on the flat artwork and check it on a rotating model, so the composition doesn't have to be judged from a single flattering angle.
The emphasis on a smooth first-time experience is important. I opened TypingWordsGIF while looking to create a small animated visual for a post or message, and I understood the basic workflow within a few moments.
The point about emulsification changing wax from water-resistant to water-soluble is what really got me — I'd never thought about the chemistry behind why these pastels behave so differently from regular crayons. I've been messing around with water-soluble media lately, mostly for quick sketches, and the velvety look on smooth paper sounds exactly like the kind of texture I'd want to play with. Speaking of textures, I've also been experimenting with deliberately rough, degraded images for a zine project, and a bad quality maker turned out to be surprisingly handy for that lo-fi aesthetic when a clean scan just felt too polished. Anyway, thanks for the breakdown — I might actually pick up a set and try diluting with a…
