Review by Laura Cameron I have always loved Ana’s lettering. A few weeks ago, as I browsed JetPens for some new materials to review, I stumbled upon their Brush Lettering Pen Sampler, and decided to give it a whirl ($29 for 6 pens). I knew I needed some instruction so I headed over to Amazon…

Pen Review: Uni Pin Brush Pen
Review by Tina Koyama Ana recently reviewed a range of sizes and colors in the Uni Pin family of pigment fine liner pens. “Just when I thought I’d reviewed every possible brand and variety of felt-tipped or fiber-tipped pen, I find another one,” she said, and I could have said the very same thing about…
Pen Review: Marvy Le Pen Flex Brush Pens (6-Color Set in Jewel Colors)

The nice thing about JetPens’ samplers is that they include a variety of fine liners, brush pens, gel pens, and others…
Brush Pen Review: Pentel Ultra Fine Artist Brush Sign Pen
Review by Tina Koyama I’ve seen a few brush pens in my day, and most with bristles have the same average-size tip. Pentel’s Ultra Fine Artist Brush Sign Pen ($3.65) is a rare exception. (I chose black to test, but it comes in 12 colors.) On the outside, it has a basic plastic body typical…
