Two markers — black and white — with brush nibs and free-flowing ink. The brush nib is the key detail here: unlike a standard felt-tip or chisel-tip marker, the brush nib responds to pressure and angle, producing lines that vary from a precise hairline to a broad expressive stroke in a single pass. The free ink formula flows to the nib rather than being absorbed into a solid core, which gives it the fluidity of a brush with the convenience of a capped, portable marker.

Black and white together is a deliberately useful combination. Black for outline, detail, lettering, and contrast. White for highlights on dark surfaces, corrections over dried media, and marks that would be invisible with a black marker on light ground. Both markers work on canvas, glass, fabric, wood, paper, and most other surfaces — the multi-surface formula means there is no need to own a different marker for every substrate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a free ink brush marker?

A free ink marker uses a reservoir of liquid ink that flows to the nib, rather than a compressed felt or foam core saturated with ink. The result is more consistent flow, better colour saturation, and a longer-lasting marker that does not dry out as quickly under normal use. Combined with a brush nib, it produces marks with the character of a loaded paintbrush — variable width, responsive to pressure, and more expressive than a standard marker tip.

What surfaces can I use these on?

Canvas, glass, fabric, wood, paper, card, plastic, and most other surfaces. The free ink formula is designed for multi-surface use. On porous surfaces like paper and fabric the ink will absorb into the material; on non-porous surfaces like glass it will sit on top and may require a longer drying time or heat setting on fabric.

Why black and white specifically?

Black and white together cover a wide range of applications without overlapping — black for line work, lettering, shadow, and outline on light surfaces; white for highlights, corrections, and marks on dark or coloured surfaces where black would be invisible. They are the two most frequently reached-for colours in most marker ranges and the most logical pair to stock together.

Are the markers refillable?

These are not refillable as standard. The free ink reservoir provides a generous working life under normal use conditions.
