BRUSHMARKER PRO

I began using the Karin Brushmarkers for lettering, and then I used them like paint with an artist paint brush. These are top-of-the line for beginners and professionals. They do not disappoint. The colors are rich and juicy, the blend quite well and they retain color saturation from start to finish. The ink and pigments used are opaque and the colors are vibrant. The markers can be used like a paintbrush with water.

These markers are super high quality and worth the price! Excellent for calligraphy, hand lettering, and even watercolor!

Shipped and arrived so fast, weeks before projected date. Amazing markers!

Brush markers are a new experience in art for me and I have been fascinated with these markers for a while and decided to make the investment and I AM IN LOVE!!!! These markers are nothing short of amazing. The blending and vibrant colors, the experience with these overall has been great.

These brushes arrived early and I immediately had to write with one. I am thrilled. The tip is not as soft as I was afraid it would be. It is perfect for me, not too hard, not too soft...just right!

These are cool pens!! Ive been using water color pencils for years - these are like Derwent Inktense pencils except much more intense! You can get great effects blending out the colors, eg/when you do gradients from a lot of coverage to very little to none - and it looks like stained glass when you done! A few things to be aware of, in my opin: the colors are very bright - I dont think these are what you want if youre looking to create subdued, misty water color effects - the color selection is strong, bright colors & neons. And I think these would be hard to control on really small images if youre say filling in a stamped image with a lot of small areas because these pens are soooo juicy. And, I hate to say it, but invest in really good water color paper - even if youre using the Strathmore 400 series - youll notice a huge difference if you try Arches with these (use some cheaper stuff to practice with!). And hot press is better for these - I read that cold press can wear these nibs, I dont know about that, but unless youre going for a really bright but loose look, I think these would be hard to control on cold press. One last thing - I was debating whether I should knock off a star for this: I found that the greys - warm, cold, and/or neutral do not dissolve & spread in that watercolor way - I dont know why. Mine pens in those colors are full of ink, but the ink goes on & sits very much like a marker. In fact, when i got my set the greys were the first colors that I tested & I actually looked up the order online because I thought oh, no, I ordered regular pens & not the water color markers! But the other colors are juicy & blendy & runny, its only those greys and a couple of the yellows were similar, but not nearly as much. Even with this flaw, however, these are great pens - my pictures look like they came off a printer - the colors just glow!! And compare the cost to Copics - yes, these pens arent as versatile, but theyre way less than half the price!! Take the money you save & buy some Arches to go with them!!

Got here way sooner than the expedited delivery date! Packaged really well, love the storage box that doubles as storage for the markers! Can’t wait to use them and try them out!!!

Son increíbles, así los describe mi hija. Se divierte creando e invirtiendo su tiempo en el arte.

I have not found a paper that works best with these color ink brushes. I find that when I lay down a color next to a black line, they run the black ink outlines. This ends up transferring black ink into the color brush tip and discolors the tips. I may be using them incorrectly, or not understanding their power to dissolve black ink lines adjacent to the newly added colors to the prints. Still trying to adjust my application of color to prints. And would like paper suggestions.

These pens have vibrant colors and the brush is soft.Happy with my purchase.
