I was recently reminded of my set of Staedtler Triplus pens by Nina Johansson, who informed me that they are NOT waterproof. I didn't know this, so I grabbed them from the studio and decided to play around with them and a waterbrush.
The result (above) is a little mucky to say the least but they were a lot of fun. A limited palette of just 10 colours proved a challenge too.
I had another bash in the garden, trying to keep the colours from merging for a cleaner look but ended up with a rather pale, colourless result.
Finally I took my efforts inside and sketched the lounge from the sofa, using the pens dry this time.
While grocery shopping last week I noticed a wallet of mini Stabilo point 88 pens, they are almost identical in colour and use but just 11.5 cms in length making them an ideal location buddy!
