The ArtGraf Water-Soluble Graphite Soft Stick by Viarco blends the traditional qualities of graphite with the fluidity of watercolor. Made from a mixture of graphite and water-soluble binders, it offers exceptional versatility in drawing and painting techniques.
Use it dry like a traditional graphite stick for rich, deep black marks and strong contrast. Add a small amount of water to soften lines and introduce painterly effects, or apply more water to create light gray washes ideal for shading, depth, and atmosphere.
Its stick format allows direct contact with the paper and expressive, freehand movement, making it ideal for drawing, sketching, mixed media, and experimental approaches combining graphite and water.
