Arteza Water Brush Pens, Set of 6, with Assorted Soft Nylon Bristle Tip Sizes, Self-Moistening Water Color Paint Pens for Aquarelle, Ink, and Watercolor Painting

Aproveche una oferta y me hice con este juego para pode utilizarlos en conjunto con mis colores acuareleables. Y la experiencia de uso ha sido buena, son de calidad y en cuanto a tamaño y forma son bueno para mi que tengo manos grandes.

I really enjoy painting with watercolor but it is kind of a pain to get everything out and full cups of water and sit at a table. I discovered watercolor pencils recently which made it possible to sketch my image while lounging on the couch but I still had to sit at a table with the cups of water once it was time to turn the pencil sketch into a watercolor painting. Then I came upon these Arteza Water Brush Pens and oh wow what a game changer. I can sit back on the couch now and using only my watercolor pencils and these water brushes complete my project. I actually find these easier than using a traditional brush because I always have a hard time controlling the amount of water on my brush. These brush pens distribute the right amount of water and if I am not sure I just do a practice squeeze on my hand to check. The water well holds enough water to cover hours of work. I didn't even read the instructions on how to fill them because they were so simple. Just open, fill, screw back on the cap and done. When I am ready to change colors I just pump out a couple of drops of water and wipe the brush on a little rag I keep next to me. Because the water distribution is so even I don't have problems of constantly needing to dab extra water off the paper because it pools. The brushes put out enough water to fully blend each small section enough that pencil lines are no longer visible. The size of the brushes are perfect and have just enough stiffness. They come in both round and flat. I really love these and highly recommend them to anyone using watercolor pencils. I haven't yet tried them with other forms of watercolor so I can't say how they would do but I could imagine they would work well. Totally would buy these again although they are made well so I doubt I will need to any time soon.

Love love love these!! The water flow is smooth and easy to control. They don't leak and work great for traveling. The different sizes are awesome for getting different details/textures in the paintings. I had never used water brush pens before and now I don't think I can go back to regular brushes! I plan to bring them hiking with me so I can paint while out in nature. I can't wait!

Good stuff.

I previously ordered a set of 18 water brushes from a different company and they were an abominable mess… The brushes didn’t dispense properly and leaked on my artwork and hands. I was LIVID, so I ordered these from Arteza. I was cautious because I kept seeing Arteza products all over Amazon and assumed their stuff would just be mass produced garbage…. But I always rely on researching these things before I draw a final conclusion and I’m GLAD I did. The Arteza brushes come in a set of six; three flats, three rounds… They have a solid construction. When you open them up and look at the brush part, you can tell the valve design is more sophisticated than the cheap varieties. On the reservoir/handle half of the brush, there is a rubber grip/bulb for dispensing more liquid. Not only is it immediately responsive so you’re not squeezing constantly, but the depth you depress the bulb controls the AMOUNT of liquid dispensed. This was VERY important to me because I wanted to use them for dispensing liquid pigment. Being able to have greater precision for this purpose is ideal! I’ve used other, more established brands in the past that did not work this well. Needless to say, I’m extremely happy with this purchase and would enthusiastically recommend these to other artists. I’m not some paid reviewer either - I just feel the need to write reviews to either warn others of making a mistake or turn them on to a product that is superior. Arteza water brushes are superior. Well worth the money.
