I love mixed media. Using Neocolor II, watercolour and coloured pencils. Right now anyways. Oh, and some Tombow markers.

These Pitt pens are one of my favourite ever art supplies. I love the colour and the way the India ink kind of pools a little when you make a mark. Wish they’d bring more colours into the duel ones from the small brush ones.

This was such a great and informative video 🎉. These are the only marker that I have been interested in purchasing so I checked and was able to purchase a set of 48 for only $80 on Amazon 👍 . They are in a nice cardboard box that you can lay on its side and be able to see the colors. Fantastic!!! No extra pens but I can always purchase those later on. Thanks 🙏 for sharing your experience and knowledge ❤

Thank you so much for watching and your kind words Diana! I am so glad that you enjoyed the video. The dual markers (these brushes) only have 30 colours - so I'd double check the 48 set or check the link in my description as it may be the smaller pens or the old single sided set. You are more than welcome. I hope that you enjoy them and that your art journey continues to flourish x x

The thinner pitt pens are amazing. I would recommend more their B line than their SB (SB is extremely soft and not super easy to control). The color range is beautiful, the ink is archival so it’s a nice complement to tombow markers. My only gripe is that you need to be careful when using them or they will fray. Another advantage is that the colors are meant to match other FC product lines, which makes working in mixed media easily (e.g. matching with polychromos and albrecht durer).

I love your videos! I’m a watercolourist taking tentative steps into mixed media. After following a tutorial in an old Leisure Painter magazine I’m now working on an expressionist landscape using brilliant high flow acrylics for background and then building up the scene with coloured pencils. The fluid acrylics create really interesting light effects and the pencils mean you can mute their tones and add details. Am just loving the process! Thanks again for all your inspiring videos ♥️

I love your videos and watched this one to the end. I love mixed media, mostly because I am still trying to figure out what I like the most. I thought it was alcohol markers, but I am really loving watercolor, neocolor 2, acrylic pens and watercolor pencils. I also like using prismacolors on top of my watercolors.

Sometimes I use mixed media: watercolor and soft pastels. Once I’ve finished a painting but I want to slightly lighten or darken an area, and I don’t want to risk reactivating an area with water, or I can’t be bothered to take my time anymore, I will use Pan Pastels or scrape some pigment from my soft pastels and then use the powdered pigment on the painting. It’s all pigment isn’t it! 😊

This is fantastic, thank you for sharing this with us ☺☺

I only have a couple of artist Pitt pens and I believe they're just the detail size. Now I'm going to have to find this particular version of them and buy the colors that I will use all of the time because there is no way that I can afford a full set sadly. On top of that I'm very conscious of using light fast colors so that I can use them in my professional work. You have really inspired me to play a little more with mixed media so far the only things that I mix are watercolor and pencil. Thank you so much for this video and the information and inspiration. I love seeing your sketchbook work it is so inspiring and so beautiful.❤

It is interesting that the barrels are a little different to the actual colours. One thing I have been able to trust pretty well with my Faber Castel pencils was that they matched so well, unlike many other brands, so I just assumed FC put that extra bit of effort in with their products. These colours are so beautiful.

Thank you for the video! I have the older version of Pitt markers. I found out that when they dry a little, you can gently use tweezers to take the tip out, wet them with some water and get some more use out of them. Also, at least in the older version, the brush tip is actually double sided and can be inserted into the marker the other way around for a new brush! I wonder in these double ended ones are similar. I love them, and the only problem they have is the brush fraying quite easily. It would be interesting to compare them.
