Faber Castell has ingeniously merged the best aspects of traditional artist's inks with the convenience of contemporary pen technology, introducing the Faber Castell Pitt Artist Pen. This pen uses pigmented, highly light-resistant ink, making it perfect for sketches, detailed drawings, layouts, fashion design, and illustrations. Ink drawings boast a rich and extensive history in the art world. This medium has consistently captivated artists and illustrators due to its expressive qualities, longevity, and versatility in blending with other drawing methods.
The Faber Castell Pitt Artists Pens are available in a wide range of brilliant colours. The pens contain a waterproof drawing ink using high quality pigments for superb lightfastness. All Faber Castell pens are acid-free. They boast a reliable and even flow of ink with a point that glides softly and smoothly over the paper.
In episode two of our brand new Pitt Artist Pen video series, the American artist Don Coley demonstrates how to build intense colours by layering the India ink. Big plus: The ink of the Faber Castell Pitt Artist Pen will not bleed through most papers.
“Brilliant shop! Wonderful, prompt and attentive service and an excellent array of products (particularly given the size of the space). I usually order online and collect in store (another excellent service) to save the risk of parking my bike outside but always enjoy a wander when I’m in town. Highly recommended!”
– Jonathan
“I ordered 3 pads of watercolour paper and when it arrived I was amazed at the way it was packed. Bubble wrap, cardboard wrap then brown paper. As a result the paper arrived in perfect condition. Well done.”
– Graham
“So nice to have a shop not in a mall or a big impersonal space with knowledgeable helpful staff-full of all the art/craft supplies one could possibly want.”
– Halima
“I’ve only found this wonderful shop recently. I have been coming into this shop regularly since as I’m doing a few craft projects at the moment. The staff are absolutely lovely and have helped me anytime I needed assistance — even with recommendations!”
– Chantelle
“The staff were very helpful and patient and helped me get everything I needed to start traditional inking/inkwash art, which is not that common (but they had the supplies regardless). Coming from a digital background, I had very little idea about what I needed but they were very patient and kind in helping me pick out each piece of equipment.”
