Oil, Brush & Specialty Markers: Beyond the Basics
Some techniques call for something beyond the standard marker. Oil markers deliver rich, opaque colour on a wide range of surfaces with exceptional lightfastness. Pitt artist pens combine the precision of a pen with the expressiveness of a brush, favoured by illustrators and fine artists alike. Brush markers offer fluid, pressure-sensitive lines that adapt naturally to your gesture. DeSerres brings together these specialty markers for artists looking to expand their practice.
When to reach for a Specialty Marker?
Oil markers are the right choice when permanence and opacity matter most, particularly on non-paper surfaces like metal, glass or stone. Pitt markers are a staple for ink drawing, manga and detailed illustration, offering consistent, archival-quality lines. Brush markers bridge the gap between marker and paintbrush, giving you expressive, variable line weight with the convenience of a capped pen. Each type serves a distinct purpose and opens up different creative possibilities. Explore our full Markers & Pens collection for more options.
