Because the inks are not highly lightfast, these pens are most useful for design work or for creating colour sketches which will then be copied. Works of art created in Ecoline ink can be stored in a portfolio to maximise their colour stability. The 'pure formula' ink, which Ecoline advise is based on dyes and Gum Arabic, is the secret to their fantastically intense colours. The ink lends itself to blending and mixing extremely well - simply add water to the colour laid down by the pens to mix and blend, or, use the handy blender pen. A firm favourite among artists and calligraphers alike, Ecoline is a fantastic transparent liquid watercolour ink which offers a wide range of colours, available in bottled ink or brush pen form. With a shorter drying time than other watercolours we've tested and beautifully bright and vivid colours available in a vast range, Ecoline stand out as some of the best watercolours around.

Talens Ecoline Brush Pens are available in 54 colours and a colourless blender. They dispense Ecoline paint, a vibrant and re-wettable watercolour which can be used on paper, board, or surfaces which have been prepared with watercolour ground.

You can use these pens on Bristol Board, Marker paper or sketching paper. These pens can be worked well with water, producing watercolour-like effects and artists wishing to achieve this would benefit by using them on watercolour paper and mixed media paper. Why we love Ecoline Brush Pens Ecoline Brush Pens have a large brush tip that is 5mm in width across its base. This means they can be used for fine detail and colouring inlarger areas of colour depending on the pressure put on the tip. These colourful markers work instantly when the tip hits the paper, producing effortless lines. Ecoline Pens can even be mixed by using them on a glossy surface, such as a pallet or a piece of acetate. What surfaces can Ecoline Brush Pens be used on? The brush pens use a large fibre-brush nib which is soft and pliable - great for achieving a variety of line widths and effects, and which keep their shape very well. With their large brush tip that is 8mm in length, the Ecoline Brush Pen range is ideal for large expressive sketches, colouring in digital art and even for some craft projects. The colours are very vibrant, making your piece of art really stand out. Ideal for fine artists, illustrators, designers and crafters, as well as calligraphers, watercolour artists and anyone who loves to draw!
