Hi Thalia Search for Derwent Artbar online. they are a water soluble 'wax' in a wide range of colours. I bought them a year ago and wasn't sure what to do with them, I felt they were a bit uneven in their application but combined with ink or used as an under drawing they can give interesting effects when you add a wash or ink on top.
