Sakura Pigma Micron Pens

Ships in 5–7 business days.

The pen most urban sketchers reach for first. Pigma ink is archival pigment that's waterproof and fade-resistant once dry, so you can draw the scene on location and wash watercolor straight over the lines. A set gives you a fine nib for detail and a heavier one for outlines and shadows.

Good for

• Urban sketching: line first, then watercolor wash
• Sketchbook journaling and field notes
• Pen-and-ink value studies before a plein air painting

Give the ink a few seconds to dry before you paint over it. Press lightly: Micron tips are fine felt and last longer without pressure.
