Supplies

Swatch Pentel pens

 

 

1. Pen Tip Shape

Pen swatches

One of the reasons I'm a huge fan of the Pentel Brush Pens is because the pen tip shape allows you to create very wispy lines, as well as thicker lines. For that reason, this pen is SO amazing for hand lettering! 

Depending on how much pressure you apply, your lines can come out thick OR thin (or both!), all with the same brush stroke. Feed two birds with one seed (the anti-animal cruelty way of saying, "two birds, one stone", priorities people!). 

  

2. Ochre Yellow

One of my two favorites from the Pentel Brush Pens is DEFINITELY the Ochre Yellow. I mean swooooooon. I'm seeing this ochre yellow in my dreams, guys. Sometimes it's hard to find a brush pen that nails the ochre yellow, but Pentel did NOT disappoint on this one! 

  

3. Juicy, Juicy Pens

All of you know how passionate I am about the longevity of brush pens, and I can confirm that these pens are FULL of ink. They're super juicy when being used, and haven't shown hardly any signs of fading. This is an aspect of brush pens that I find so, so important because there's nothing worst than having your ink flow less than desirable. 

Pen swatching

Because the pens are so juicy, they're also very vibrant in color! These colors pop so much on paper, and I'm here for it. There's nothing better than a vibrant brush pen to add that extra POP to whatever you're working on.

 

4. Authentic Black

Finding a true black brush pen is NO easy feat, guys. Trust me, I've tried so many blacks with various brush pens, and they usually let me down. This isn't the case for the Pentel Brush Pens! The black brush pen is a true, deep black! 

How to swatch pens

 

 Who doesn't love a swatch? Hopefully this swatch review has convinced you that you need these brush pens in your life (nope they sure aren't paying me to say that)! Pentel is really showing off with these vibrant and juicy brush pens. Brb feeling inspired to use all of these colors in one lettering project.
