- In this video I demonstrate a quick ink and wash technique to create a watercolor sketch of a fir tree. I reveal the fountain pen and waterproof ink I use for this sketch. I also explain the advantages of using a fude nib in your fountain pen. #inkandwash #fude #fountainpen
I use a fountain pen and ink to create a contour drawing and then apply a watercolor wash once the ink has dried. This is a popular form of fountain pen art. Watch this video to learn how to sketch in this way.
I also demonstrate how to fill a fountain pen with ink. :-)
Please Note: Different types and thickness of paper will affect the dry time of ink. Test your ink drawing before proceeding with watercolor wash, to ensure the ink is dry.

You are very welcome. Thanks for watching! Merry Christmas!!
Very good explanation of pen and ink wash!
Thank you so much!!
Very Nice! Just what I am looking for a type of a quick sketch and paint.
Thanks for the feedback Marc. Glad the video was helpful
Looks like an excellent alternative to the disposables that are so common today. I would imagine after a little practice it beats switching pens all the time. Great video. Thank you! 👍
Yes, exactly. I love this pen. The ink lasts quite a long time.
Thank you very much.
You are welcome! Have a great day!!
Thank you
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching and leaving feedback.
Enjoyed your presentation. I do have one comment however. I use Nibblers black ink and a fude nib pen, but I also use 140# cold press watercolor paper and find it will often take more than an hour for the ink to completely dry. You might want to tell your viewers to lay a scrap piece of watercolor paper on top of you sketch to blot up any excess wet ink before applying your watercolor paint. I’ve spoiled a few works by waiting less than an hour for the ink to dry.
Great suggestion, Robert. I appreciate the feedback.
A beginner wc here. every time I search for a topic I most often get artists/YTers from the PNW plus Daniel Smith and M Graham are based out of here too. It thrills my heart to know I am living in the right state🙏🏽❤️ beautiful WA.😛 . Very helpful.
I'm so glad to connect with another PNW'er. Thanks for leaving feedback...I really appreciate it.
This was super helpful thank you so much. 😊👍
You're welcome. I also learn a lot when I put the videos together. So...its a win...win. :-)
Kris DeBruine Studio I hope you don’t mind but I have a list of questions that perhaps you don’t mind addressing in your videos for beginners such as myself. Should I write them on your comment section or would you prefer me to email them to you?
You can list them right here in the comments if you would like. Thanks!
Kris DeBruine Studio Awesome! So here are some of my questions: 1. What are some common beginner mistakes and how to avoid them? 2. What are some watercolor practices you can recommend to a beginner to get use to the medium? 3. How do you know what techniques to use when painting certain things such as landscapes or portraits? 4. What is brush control? 5. What is lightfastness and how important is it? 5. Can you mix other medium to watercolor paint mix such as oil paint or gouache or acrylics? 6. How to preserve your painting after it’s completed? Is there a clear coat of paint we can use to preserve it? Hope you’re not overwhelmed 😬
Great questions. I will add those to my list of possible videos for the future. Thanks so much. Glad you are a part of this community!
Eh disfrutado mucho tu video, sobretodo la parte en que rellenas la estilografica. Saludos.
De nada. Gracias por ver. Espero que la traducción sea buena. Yo no hablo español

Nice video, Kris. I also like the Duke pens, even better than my Visconti! You are a great communicator with excellent diction. That’s uncommon these days.😉
Thank you so much. That's nice to hear about the diction. I'm a teacher by profession....so I spend a lot of time talking in front of people. Maybe that helps. :-) Have a great day.
Thank you for this . My research had brought me to that ink as well, but hésitated because of length of shipping time. I’ll be patient then 😂
I love it!
Very nice. Thanks for the pen demo.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
Really helpful thank you, can you advise the brand of water colour paint please? 👍
Thanks for watching.
Do you know if the nib at 45° or 50° angle...I live in the pacific northwest as well
I knew there was a reason I like you :)
Heather
Hi Neighbor. I measure the angle at about 40 - 45 degrees. The seller on Amazon says it is 40 degrees. Hope this helps.
Oops found water colour brand, thank you 👍🏿
You’re welcome 😊
I’m complete beginner Will i be able to use this sort of pen
You will need to practice and experiment with the angle of the tip and the amount of pressure to use. But I'm sure you can get the hang of it. Have a great day!
Thank you
