Don’t you hate it when your art work is ruined because of a pencil smear? Darla Dixon does too, and that is why she 
loves to use Tombow MONO Drawing Pencils. Darla creates pencil portraits and her work has been published many times and it is even sold internationally.
She prefers to use MONO Drawing pencils because the artist slant and extra-refined, high density graphite help her to create smearproof portraits! With a break resistant point, these Tombow drawing pencils are perfect for blending and will help you to produce crisp, clean drawings with the added value of slow wear for smooth, dense writing and are available in multiple point strengths.

Drawing portraits can be a challenging experience for artists. Even seasoned vets can find recreating exact skin tones, eye colors and hair colors a difficult task.
We want to make life a little easier for our artist friends, so we created the Tombow Dual Brush Portrait Set. The set, which comes in a 6- and a 10-pack, features various flesh tones, plus a blender pen, that can be blended to give your portrait a lifelike affect.
The featured portrait was created by illustrator Jim Nichols for the Portrait Set packaging.
