ARTEZA Real Brush Pens & Water Brushes ~ Review + Demo

[@Undankbar]

I was surprised to see how versatile these pens are! especially the tip-to-tip method. I would not have thought that it would transfer that much paint from holding them together so briefly.

[@KaatydidArt]

It is really surprising! But its a lot of fun to get those kinds of blends. You can always hold it longer for better effects as well!

[@sarahquilt6687]

That tip to tip gradient you did was amazing.

[@KaatydidArt]

It was super fun to do, I love tip to tip blending

[@NeonSlushy]

When you started to put the red eyeshadow down I first thought that those are her eyes and I was reaaaally creeped out! I am glad that she has normal eyes and it looks great in the end :D I really want to try out some arteza art supplies as they are everywhere on youtube right now, but I do have a lot of art supplies and I don't have the time to work with even more supplies and I don't want them to lay around and be lonely :D but one day I will buy some of these brush pens and probably a bunch more of arteza's supplies c: great review btw :D

[@KaatydidArt]

When I put the red eyeshadow on her eyelids, that was the scariest part of the painting for me. Not because it looked strange (omg it did), but because I thought I had ruined here eyes, and the piece in general. I'm just happy I was able to salvage it haha! Oh, as an art supply hoarder myself, I completely agree with you. These would be fun to pick up eventually, but I understand wanting to use your other supplies first!

[@klev5021]

i ordered the arteza markers 48 pack and they’re coming 1 day later . Sorry for my bad vocabulary I’m not english 😅

[@pudding5925]

The other day my mum just basically tild me "yo i bought you arteza brush pens" and i was really confused i havwnt given them a proper try yet excited to after watching this

[@KaatydidArt]

So happy my video was inspirational! I'd love to see what you make!

[@syland]

Literally the same thing happened to me!!!

[@mugi9949]

I got both of those for Christmas and I'm actually really happy with them. I'm not good at water coloring but this helped me a lot and I've gotten a lot better.

[@Zoejo]

I just ordered these, and I can't wait until they come, so I can use them! Also, this is kinda irrelevant, but I didn't even realize until halfway through the video that you're left handed! I'm left handed too, so I thought that was really cool!

[@KaatydidArt]

Ooh thats exciting! These are super fun, I hope you like them! Hehe that I am, fellow lefties unite!!!! ❤️

[@MayaBalan-s9g]

My uncle is getting these for me for Christmas and I wanna see what they do. When you said,”everybody and their mother has reviewed these” I was like,”well everybody and their mother did not do a good job!” Because of you I am now certain I will like these and have fun with them Thank You (ps I’m talking about the 48 set)

[@anastasiam.prickett4875]

Such a beautiful piece. It's closer to my kind of art techniques and I've been wanting to try these Brush pens. Just ordered some and I am so excited now! Woohoo! And I'm happy to say I have added another great artist to my Subscription list.

[@zerohasnotime9163]

Tempted to buy some

[@george-annwood7526]

I would recommend to start with a small set. I just got this and I absolutely love them! I am in no way an artist but I had the best time messing around learning how to use them and I am amazed how well they work! They are really cool!

[@damianogiolitti3416]

@@george-annwood7526 hello there George, Is each of these markers going to last? I wanted to try these and I use thin layers of watercolor to build my colors slowly. I assume to achieve this with markers I use a tiny drop and use mostly the water brush. The colors seem to be very saturated

[@dianastyles3030]

Oh my god I've been trying to find out how to use these pens for so long I didn't know the tip to tip method thank you so much

[@miaawheatleyy]

Hi! I’m happy you posted. I might buy some of these.

[@deniahb9791]

your mom love your profile picture

[@saponemm]

I just got these! I’m glad I found this video right after!

[@katherinebordier6195]

I am sure you know, but They have open stock now!

[@KaatydidArt]

That's great news!!!

[@sarahquilt6687]

Ohmigosh the squid test. That was the cutest thing.

[@KaatydidArt]

Hehe thank you!

[@dougg1075]

Wow! That tip to tip thing was cool

[@JohnBankstonphotography]

That was awesome and showed me so many different techniques. Thanks so much.

[@savyr8369]

I just stumbled across this review, and really enjoyed it. ur card at the end was amazing! 😸

[@thesunrisechick6878]

I brought the watercolor real pens and was thinking of the watercolor pen set and you helped me make the decision to buy them lol.

[@stefanilee251]

This was amazing. I love the piece you ended up with. Deff want some now lol

[@yuxsama]

I just ordered them on Amazon! I cant wait to use them!! :D

[@lauraalonso4642]

11:05 I found this out the hard way. I had a decent drawing down and the black hair mixed with the tan skin and I had to toss it. I’m still learning with these 😬 and with watercolor products in general

[@KaatydidArt]

Yeah that black is a real doozy if it's reactivated next to colors you don't want it to bleed into. But you can do it! In my experience, watercolor is something you should experiment with! Good luck!

[@lauraalonso4642]

Kaatydid Art thank you!!

[@ezomath]

Anyone love it when artist you love have the things you have? I have the brush pens, they're good.

[@carolann4714]

Have you run a light fastness test on these yet? They look so much fun to play around with though from what I've heard Arteza only offers vague claims about the lightfastness rating.

[@KaatydidArt]

I have not, however it is on my to-do list!! Currently working on other Arteza products though!

[@millierose6321]

I love these pens but I can't find out anywhere if instead of the water pens can you just use a small wet paint brush to blend the colour instead?? Of do they only blend well if you use their water pens?

[@gisellejacques4996]

Great Video, really great illustrations and I am getting myself some of those pens!

[@KaatydidArt]

Yas! They're my fave! Super fun for sure. Hope you like them when/if you get them!

[@HQnovad]

i love this! i recently got some of these markers and this was so helpful! what kind of paper did you use? :)

[@KaatydidArt]

Shoot, I forgot to put it in the description. UH, I think it was Fluid watercolor paper? That's my go-to.

[@duvah]

I ♡ur channel These look perfect specially tip to tip method

[@kimberlymiller8274]

Thank you SO much for this informative review and video! I just received these yesterday and unfortunately, the official Arteta tutorial was NOT helpful. I've always worked in acrylics, think I'm going to need some extra talent to do any good in the watercolor medium! Thanks again!

[@KaatydidArt]

Definitely make sure to give yourself time to practice and learn! And make sure not to be too hard on yourself. You can do this! :)

[@ravenheart9448]

beautiful piece!

[@KaatydidArt]

Why, thank you! I find that it's still one of my favorites to this day!

[@maggiewillow7229]

Love your work at the end beautiful 🧡

[@anitalataille6608]

How do you clean these water brush pens???

[@EM-ug8ud]

Nice review, beautiful art

[@bellasadri8684]

Hello, A wonderful video and review! The art is just very beautiful and pleasant to look at! :) However, I have a question; what do You think is a better set? A creators watercolor set Arteza (36 pan watercolors, 2 mixed media sketchbooks and 1 arteza water pen) 59.99USD, the ohuhu alcohol brush tip markers (48 set) 31. USD or a set of real brush pens, 2 watercolor pads and a set of water brushes ( im not sure what was the price, but im thinking its 69.99 USD (???)) I am having a VERY hard time deciding between these ones, and any help choosing would be such a relief (LOL). Anyways, a great video!And a stunning piece! :v

[@moriahveillon2583]

how you said they’re not the best for lining, I’m buying these to do a portrait for my girlfriends birthday, and I’m so used to only using mechanical pencils and sharpie pens for my faces. I need to be able to line her face, so do you think if I can’t line very well with the brush pens, is it a good idea to use fine liners with this or should I use color pencils?

[@KaatydidArt]

You could use these to outline, if you have a light and steady hand, and you wait for the piece to completely dry. You can also use fineliners (I did in tis piece), as long as you make sure you outline it last, or use a waterproof liner!

[@akanksha.6580]

i have 96 pack they are amazing i use them for calligraphy( takes a while to get used to it) and watercoloring

[@kataratify]

They sell 6 packs of individual colors if you run out. Not 100% sure if all of the colors are available in 6 packs. (the basic brown, green, black, purple etc etc are though)

[@KaatydidArt]

When I made this video, they didn't, however it's good to know they do now! :D

[@neena2609]

its 12 am but hi c:

[@Makalasbeautybar]

My brushes do not work as well as those. When I try to blend colors they just dont work well. They will remove the color ive put down already when I want to add darker details, it just spreads into the base color and moves around making weird splotches! and i dont feel like they dry at all because when i touch the painting ive made I still get residue. I bought the whole set of like all the colors and ill keep them for other paintings and work because the colors are nice. Edit: your work is very well done though i love the colors

[@kawaiielephant7772]

1:40 OMG PERIWINKLE THEY NEVER INCLUDE THAT COLOUR AND ITS MY FAVORITE I *NEED* THESE MARKERS NOW

[@blakelytaylor9402]

I literally just got these and I’m watching it as I’m reviewing it to

[@karlyk9358]

this isn't exactly a question related to the brush pens ( i got them today for my birthday :))) ) but can you use a gel pen (when the watercolor dries) as lineart? or would that not work and make it look bad?

[@KaatydidArt]

You certainly can use a white gel pen for lineart, but you should practice it in a sketchbook, just to make sure you like the results! It'd give it an interesting look for sure!

[@dougg1075]

Do the pens have water in them ?

[@joeblankenship377]

I'm assuming one could mix up their own watercolors and fill those water brush pens, right?

[@KaatydidArt]

You sure can!

[@kentuckylady2990]

I would love to have a set.

[@pearloyewole6581]

i just ordered them then realized i forgot to check reviews soooo here i am

[@ellatraynor252]

[@ellatraynor252]

Does anyone know how to clean the just water brush pens?

[@KaatydidArt]

If you're talking about the bristles, using a brush cleaner, such as Master's Brush Cleaner, will do the trick!

[@stevieausten7015]

Mine came today. Want to figure out how to use them properly.

[@eggyolk605]

Don't these come with a Waterbrush? To Christmas (Today :D) i'm gonna get the 24 Pack. I already looked at the Packaging. It said it comes with a Waterbrush. It's Blue though.

[@KaatydidArt]

My particular set didn't, but yours might! Especially if it advertised it :) I hope you enjoy them!

[@jerseyl0ad1ng]

Same! Mines blue too

[@trinket5969]

Yeah, my set of the Arteza markers had a 'Aqua pen' as I've seen them be called. I got a set of 48 and it came with a water pen

[@Dizzaton]

What white and black pens are you using? They're nice and bright and I totally need them! Lol great review, thanks so much :)

[@KaatydidArt]

I have them listed in the description! :)

WHY THANK YOU ♥

[@Moonlight_shine7]

I bought then with a watercolor premium pad of 30 sheets. Sadly, they don't blend very well 😕 it is so disappointing, I have tried with other watercolor paper I have, and kinda worked with 120 and 180gr.

[@shelbytran9863]

Does it come with a waterbrush, or did u have to buy your own?

[@KaatydidArt]

Mine didn't come with a water brush, but some sets do!

[@laineydoodles9297]

For some reason, the black Arteza marker didn't agree with me. You seemed like you had good results than with mine. I guess it's experimentation that makes it better. ^^;

[@KaatydidArt]

Oh no! That's never good. Was it a defect with the marker? Or just a preference thing?

[@laineydoodles9297]

Kaatydid Art Maybe it was a defected color. All I did notice was that the hue of that black was kinda blue-ish? Also, it could be a preference thing that I'd rather have black watercolor paints come from pans, pencils or from a tube. (Though, fancy schmacy art tutors say not to use black at all or mix paint to get black. Who listens to those stuck-in-the-muds anywau? XP)

[@KaatydidArt]

The black is blue biased, but I didn't mind it. I much prefer cool blacks to warm ones. I agree with you though, about liking blacks that come from pans/tubes/pencils a bit more than from water based markers. LOL I use black all the time in my colors. Whether it's to darken a color, or just plain ol' black. I don't see anything wrong with it xD

[@duvah]

Sorry ... I'm late Why don't u do a (international) give away ? I haven't watched the vid yet but i commented
