what are the colors included in this set

Dear Elizabeth Gosnell, Thank you for your inquiry. I apologize for any inconvenience. This product is the General's Charcoal Pencil Drawing Kit #15, it is great set for a beginning drawing class. The 13 piece kit contains: HB, 2B, 5B Charcoal White, (2) 6B, Carbon Sketch pencils. Also includes (2) soft sticks of compressed charcoal, soft jumbo stick of compressed charcoal, white charcoal stick, artist's pencil sharpener & kneaded eraser. Thank you, Karen S./Blick Art Materials

I'd say that they are oil-free. They are charcoal.

What would I use to keep the charcoals from smearing?

If you have finished your picture you will need to spray it with a fixative. If you are drawing and trying to prevent smearing you can place a piece of paper over the area you are not working on or get vinyl sleeves.

I really want to incorporate the white charcoal into my art. Do I need to use the gray or tan tinted paper? Any recommendation?

I have used the white charcoal on white paper. It mixes with the black for some good effects. I was putting snow on tree branches. Of course you could use it on darker paper, but you don't have to.

Adoro questa scatola di carboncini, sono di grande qualità, e pur essendo i miei primi lavori noto subito la differenza con materiali più commerciali. Peccato che qui da noi sembrino introvabili. Il venditore in ogni caso é super gentile, risponde subito ad ogni quesito, e rimborsa le spese doganali in tempi brevissimi :) consiglio senz’altro

Hay que acostumbrarse a las diferentes durezas. Sin embargo son losejores lápices de carbocillo que he tenido. Sobre todo los más suaves. Que profundos negros dan sobre papel de piedra.
