cedharrsketchbook luisruiz.es Discussion Page Article: Observations on the Waterbrush Waterbrushes started appearing in Japan several years ago and have recently become very popular around the world. In Tokyo, I've noticed there are more books on sketching which recommend the waterbrush now, including several books by Chihiro Tanaka, the man who is credited with inventing these. He used to empty the ink out of regular brush pens and fill them with water. Then he included photos of these modified tools in his books on watercolor sketching. Some of brush pen makers realized he was on to something big and started to produce these brush pens with translucent barrels and no ink, calling them waterbrushes (mizu-fude). I have been using either Pentel Aquash (the one at bottom of the photo) or Kuretake Phys waterbrushes (the three in the middle) almost to the exclusion of my regular brushes. One cool thing about waterbrushes is that the constant water supply will allow you to go from dark to light in a natural unbroken graduation. Update (August 2006): Update (October 2011):
