Pentel Coincidence

Greg gave me this tiny green Ball Pentel purchased from Officeworks on a pen buying spree of his, the day after my previous post. He says he had not seen my post.

The ball point of this pen is a lot more like a classic ball point, not as liquid as the standard size Pentel Ball.

As of last weekend Greg has his own website now: www.greggerrand.com

I'm a Pentel Girl

These are my standard tools I take with me EVERYWHERE. From left to right: Pentel Extra Fine Point Correction Pen, Ball Pentel Fine Point R50, Kuretake Co. Ltd watercolour brush pen filled with Art Spectrum white and black inks to make grey, Pentel brush pen filled with Art Spectrum black ink.

I haven't been able to find the Pentel brush pens again (hence the purchase of the Kuretake), I bought this one from Arts Stretchers in Melbourne, only to be told when I went in to buy more that they had stopped stocking them :(

Brush Pens Rock!

Shiny New Moleskin

One of the few drawings I've done in my new moleskin. I usually use a brushpen when working in a moleskin, and I'm discovering that my other usual pen, a green Ball Pentel R50, is horrible to use on shiny moleskin pages. This sketch of Greg before our lunch arrived is with an Artline Ergoline Fine 0.4, which I'm finding more pleasant to work with, but I miss my green pentel.
