RE: AM Scribbles Day 5 – Sepia Woman with Questionable Values
That's really neat. It would look good in an old-fashioned frame!
I haven't seen watercolor pens like that before. How long do they last?

Thank you @winstonalden for checking out day 5 and for the compliments!
I have had the Pentel® Aquash™ for a few months. It can take some extreme abuse. After I clogged it with extra thick white ink, I started using it more as a regular brush that I never have to wash. No matter what I do to it, the Pentel® keeps its point and its shape.
The knock off brand has a durable nylon brush tip also, but the water delivery is very iffy. Lines start dry and become instant puddles with the gentlest pressure on the barrel. Also the individual brush hairs are somewhat coarse, making thinner lines more difficult to lay down consistently. Another point to mention is that the cheap water brush came with 3 sizes for about the same price as one of the name brand.
I fill mine with ink or paint mixed with water, but these water brushes can be filled with water only to be used with paint from a pallet.
Enough about my supplies - Have you made anything recently with Krita? Have you seen @erodedthought's latest horrible art contest? As a self-proclaimed "un-artist", it could be right up your alley! ☺
You know, I haven't played with Krita in a while. Given that it's such a rainy day today, maybe I will.
