I guess my early love of Crayola brand has not left me since I have done most of my classes with Crayola Colored Pencils—a brand that is universally affordable yet produces decent art work. Love to color or do colored pencil artwork but just dread all the necessary sharpening that needs to be done? Maybe having to sharpen deters you enough that you just avoid using colored pencils altogether. Pictured above on my Visual Edge Slant Board, Crayola Twistables have many advantages. Here they are:Crayola makes both erasable and non-erasable twistable colored pencils. And I find even the non-erasable can be almost completely erased when erasing a very light layer. Completely Safe and Non-Toxic In summary, I do not find working with a blunt point a limitation in any way. I simply go into an art session with twistables knowing I will be employing slightly different techniques and producing a slightly different outcome. It’s almost like working with a different medium. What about Layering and Blending? GREAT FOR COLORING BOOKS: Twistable color pencils are great for coloring, drawing, and creating on the go. Crayola Twistable Colored Pencils are definitely worth a try. If you color, you will love them! They are so fun and delightful to use. And you can’t beat the convenience of no sharpening!

Never needs sharpening—so no worries about leads breaking in the sharpener or having to have a sharpener at all! The fact that you cannot sharpen this like traditional colored pencils, you will always be working with a blunt point. In fact, this is one of the biggest differences in performance of this pencil compared to their traditional counterparts. But rule #1 in working with colored pencils is to always have a sharp point when working with them, right? The colors are adequately pigmented allowing for satisfactory result. I think the colors produce a softer looking (as opposed to bold) coloration. And that’s very nice. (See the butterfly picture above). Are They Erasable? On all three counts, though, the upside is that they wear very slowly so you may seldom have to toss or replace these. Try Them!Crayola Twistables Colored Pencils are not crayons. You will understand this the minute the color lays down on the paper. The Crayons and Colored pencils are two different products. Tip: When trying out brand new pencils out of the box, I recommend doing two things: 1. Twist up about a quarter inch of the point and gently wipe with tissue to remove the wax that rises to the surface after sitting for a while. And 2. Work them on scrap paper first to gently wear down the very hard edge and round out the point a bit. If you use them right out of the box without doing these things first, you may find them a bit scratchy to work with and get the wrong impression of them. Color Variety and Pigmentation Admittedly, Crayola Twistables feel somewhat soft (kind of like a crayon) but perform like a colored pencil. You can layer and blend with them quite easily, just like traditional colored pencils. What about fine lines and details? Contrary to what you may assume with a blunt point you still are able to create a fine line and detail with these pencils. All you need to do is look for a fine edge on the point a voila! fine line.
