Tonight I’m testing the Arrtx acrylic brush markers and seeing how they perform in a real painting, not just swatches. I’ll talk honestly about the pigment strength, flow, blendability, and whether they’re actually useful for heping with loose watercolor style work. No hype, just a practical evaluation while we paint a fun, simple flower paining together. Let’s see if they’re worth adding to your kit.

➡️ *About my brushes*
I buy my favorite brushes from Drawell. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. drawell.co.jp/english/product.html
