Brush Pens
Are you longing to unleash your inner artist? Offering continuous, strong colour, a brush pen creates broad, sweeping strokes and fine lines. This gives you the ability to create intricate, detailed illustrations. As such, brush pens work flawlessly with calligraphy pens.
Using brush pens in calligraphy
The art of calligraphy can be quite intimidating – especially for beginners. Brush pens are a wonderful implement to help ease you into this ancient writing style. Generally, brush pens are much easier to use than regular calligraphy pens. They are also much more cost-effective.
Brush pens for beginners
For people dipping their toe into the world of brush pens, beginner pens feel remarkably like markers. They have firm tips, which are very easy to handle. This allows you to create thin or firm lines, depending on your grip on the pen.
Brush pen types
The most popular brush pen types are the dual brush pen and the watercolour brush pen. Below are the benefits of each, to help you make a decision.
Dual brush pen
The dual brush pen is an excellent option for beginners. Its flexible tip allows you to produce lines of varying thickness, depending on the pressure place on it. Inks come in a wide selection of colours, which are easily blendable. And, the ink is non-toxic, so it’s safe for children.
Watercolour brush pen
The watercolour brush pen combines the timeless look and style of watercolour paints with the convenience of a brush pen. Similar to watercolours, these inks can be easily blended with water. With easy storage and clean-up, you can experiment with watercolours wherever you are. Email the Bunbougu team for help choosing the right brush pen for you.
