1 answer

If the artist wants to create large works and also have the ability to erase, the best choice among the options provided would be B Colored Pencil.

Colored pencils can be used to create large works, especially if the artist uses a technique that allows for smooth blending and shading. Additionally, colored pencils offer the advantage of being erasable to some extent, especially if the artist uses lighter colors or works on a suitable paper that can handle erasing.

Markers, soft pastels, and oil pastels are less suitable for erasing:

  • Markers are permanent and can't be erased.
  • Soft pastels can smudge easily and are challenging to erase cleanly.
  • Oil pastels are also difficult to erase and generally provide a more permanent mark.

Therefore, colored pencils provide the desired flexibility for large-scale work with the ability to erase mistakes.
