Pens and their classes:
We can classify pens like brush pens, fine liners, and fountain pens. Brush pens are flexible and allow a smooth flow of color. They have water-soluble ink which enables, mixing & blending of colors for beautiful paintings. Fineliners are convenient, sharp pens for sleek lines. They have several tip sizes for multiple line widths.
Fountain Pens:
Fountain pens come in many styles and colors. A fountain pen consists of a reservoir that we can fill with liquid ink. The ‘feed’ of the pen connects its nib and reservoir. The nib can be of different styles like fine, medium, broad, oblique, stub, italic, 360-degree, etc. The nib is flexible, which gives freedom to the artist while drawing. Fountain pen serves the purpose of calligraphy, ink drawing, professional art & design.
