Pilot Futayaku Double-Sided Brush Pen - Black / Gray Ink

Asia has some of the worlds finest modern brush pens due to its long history with art and calligraphy. In Japan, black and gray brush pens are used frequently during the holidays for elegant writing on cards in announcements. Many artists have fallen in love with such brush pens because these colors are often used together in artwork. The pen is double-sided with a black ink felt tip brush on one side and a gray ink brush on the other side. It is perfect for outlining and shading and is fairly water-resistant. Appropriately, it is called "Futayaku," which means "two uses" in Japanese. The two hard brush tips make it is easy to create controlled brush strokes, which is sometimes challenging with softer tips.
