ZOFIVE
Caran d’Ache Luminance Colour Pencil Bleu De Nimes 135 is an individual artist colour pencil from the Luminance range, suited to detailed coloured-pencil drawing, illustration and fine art.
Bleu De Nimes 135 is a versatile blue-toned shade for artists working with cool colour passages, deeper details and layered tonal work. It can be used to introduce blue variation into artwork while building depth through controlled colour layering.
Use this shade for landscapes, skies, water, ocean scenes, botanical illustration, flowers, wildlife, portraits, still life and detailed illustration. It can also be useful for architectural and urban sketches where blue-toned details or shadows are required.
Layer Bleu De Nimes with lighter blues to create gradual transitions, or combine it with deeper blue and neutral shades for stronger contrast. It can also be paired with greens for natural subjects and with warmer colours to create complementary colour relationships.
For landscape artwork, the pencil can be used for sky, distant forms, water and atmospheric details. In botanical and floral illustration, it can add blue variation to petals, foliage and natural shadows. For portrait and figure work, it can be used selectively for eyes, hair, clothing, reflected colour and cool shadow passages.
As an individual Luminance pencil, Bleu De Nimes 135 is useful for artists building a nuanced blue palette or replenishing a specific colour used frequently in detailed artwork.
