Art Supply List
Drawing pencils	Drawing pencils come in a variety of different hardness, the SOFTest (usually numbered 9B) to HARDest (9H). I would recommend getting a 6B, 2 B and 2H. If these numbered pencils aren’t available try any range from hard to soft. So common brand names are: Eberhard Faber, Berol, Derwent, Mars.
