## Caption

The difference between wax-based vs oil-based colored pencils comes down to binder, and that changes how they behave: blending, layering, and detail. Wax pencils are softer and creamier. Oil-based pencils stay firmer and sharper longer. Watercolor pencils add yet another approach with water-reactive color.
