The first modern pencil is attributed to the invention of a graphite core encased in wood, which emerged in the 16th century. This innovation is often credited to the English in 1564, particularly the discovery of a large graphite deposit in Borrowdale, Cumbria. The wood-encased graphite pencil was later popularized by manufacturers such as the German company Faber-Castell in the 18th century. However, the exact individual responsible for the very first pencil remains unclear, as it was a gradual development.

What do you make the color tan on paper?

If you are using a crayon or colored pencil, then that will be the easiest way to make the color tan. First, get a normal colored brown crayon or colored pencil. Then, start coloring very lightly with a brown crayon or colored pencil on a paper. Make sure you are not pushing down hard on the pencil, because then you will get dark brown, not tan. If you are following the instructions correctly, then you should make the color tan.
