I know I did a quick blog on the Brush tip art markers when we first began our blog on this site, but I must return to them because, well, some of the 48 count sets came in today and I was dazzled. Take a look at this:

You can see the pull cord for the zipper, but what you can't see is the fabric loop so you can hang these on hooks or a belt buckle (if you travel with your drawing tools) or something to stablilze them. Or, you could just pick it up with a finger or two and go off to another space. And it also has a braided cord that allows you to carry it like luggage. I say 'it', but there are two in this set: 24 markers in each one and COME ON, DON'T YOU WANT TO CREATE SOMETHING RIGHT NOW? Gheez, I do and I'm not even an artist--or a facimile of one. Five year olds do better than me. And all the markers have the color name in both English and French so you can say cool names like Ocre Brulee, or Bleu Outremer. Makes you want to catch the next flight to Paris. Or just sit somewhere slightly public and start brushing those colors onto a suface like you know what you're up to. 

I did actually sneak a stroke with one of the brush tips and it was so very smooth and lovely. Ideas flooded my mind and I wanted to make them all appear in one moment. I don't think I can encourage you enough to take a peek at these beautiful products. I think you will, at the very least, smile a whole bunch.
