Product Review
Sharpie Liquid Pencil - not good at all. It is supposed to have the ease of a ball point pen but completely erase. It is made with a liquid graphite.
Cons:
1. It does not write a small line without skipping.
2. It erases too well, if you rub it with your hand the line will erase.
3. No shading ability at all.
Sharpie Pens- It is the working classes take on the Sakura Micron Pen. The Sharpie Pen does not bleed, comes in two widths and is pretty affordable. I use one everyday I have them everywhere purse, desk and with my sketchbook. I like that they do not have the tendency to bleed or leak for no reason out of the vent holes near the tip like the Sakura Microns tend to if you do not store them like a fine China. Their inexpensiveness is a plus because if I know there is a chance the tip could get wrecked by outlining on a heavily textured paper like watercolor I am not going to go broke replacing it.
Pros:
1. Inexpensive with great quality ink and construction
2. Easy to find at most stores grocery, drug store and places like Target or Staples
3. Smooth easy to use, no bleeding through like regular Sharpies
Cons:
1. If you let someone use your pen, there is a good chance they will steal it later because they like it.
2. I wish they had one size smaller than 'fine' and one size larger than the 'medium' for a full array of widths.
*The Ink is made from Tiger Blood!
Pros:
ZERO
Cons:
1. It does not write a small line without skipping.
2. It erases too well, if you rub it with your hand the line will erase.
3. No shading ability at all.

found!
Back in 2009 I had participated in my first Public Art show in 10 years. I did three watercolors, I had digital scans made of them. I lost the files. I didn't think of looking on the Rochester Contemporary Art Centers gallery to obtain them until right now. I feel sort of relieved. BUT I also found out that one of them did not sell.
Meh.
Meh.
