SAKURA Koi Botanical Watercolor Brush Pens / Set of 6
The SAKURA Koi Botanical watercolor brush pens set contains 6 coordinated natural shades with flexible brush tips and water-soluble, dye-based ink. They are ideal for illustrators, manga fans, and calligraphy enthusiasts, allowing them to draw precise lines and create smooth watercolor gradients directly on paper. The flexible tip responds to changes in pressure, so you can create both a thin line and a broad stroke with one tool.

Uses and techniques
The pens are designed for calligraphy, watercolor, and drawing. Draw directly with the pen on watercolor paper, then blend the ink as needed with a damp or water brush. The paints can be mixed and layered. Let the first layer dry before applying another. Always close the cap tightly after use to keep the tips from drying out.
Frequently asked questions
What is the width and type of tip, and is it suitable for fine lettering? The pens have flexible brush tips that change the width of the stroke depending on pressure, from a fine line to a broad stroke, making them ideal for lettering and calligraphy.
What paper is best for using these pens? The pens are designed primarily for watercolor and drawing paper, as water may show through when blending on regular office paper.
