It looks like Sennelier is set to launch a new range of Ink Brush Pens
Sennelier is launching a range of 36 water-dilutable ink brushes ideal for bullet journaling, lettering, and watercolor painting. The brush, designed by Yves-Marie Salanson – artistic director of Sennelier, is innovative in two major ways:
First major innovation: these Brush Pens have real synthetic fibre brush tips! The innovation of the Sennelier Ink Brush Pens is to be equipped with a real brush tip made of real fibers unlike the many felt-tips on the market whose tip is a brush-shaped foam. Thanks to these real fibres, the application of the colour is more fluid, constant and linear, taking advantage of the internal capillarity of the brush to facilitate the dispersion of the colour. In the same gesture, the artist can create extremely fine and very wide lines (up to 10mm) with a continuous flow of ink, by simply varying the pressure of the tip on the paper.
The second innovation is the formula itself: Pigment based and exclusive to Sennelier, it is environmentally friendly, which explains why there is no safety marking on the label. 24 of the 36 colours are from Sennelier’s “La Petite Aquarelle” range. This correspondence allows watercolourists and illustrators to harmoniously complete the details and highlights of their works in watercolour.
Sennelier’s Ink Brushes are suitable for lettering enthusiasts, bullet journal fans, illustrators, watercolorists, and anyone who appreciates ink brush-style pens.
Features:
- Brush tip made of synthetic fiber
- Water-dilutable ink, environmentally friendly

- 24 colors identical to the colors in the Sennelier “la Petite Aquarelle” range of inks
- 12 iridescent colors
- Precise tip, smooth flow
- Slim design that mimics the shape of a brush
No word yet on availability. I’ll edit this post with more information as soon as it becomes available.
Can I take these on a plane in my carry-on?
how do I get the ink to flow in the sennelier brush pens
Hi Cheryle, thanks for your question. You need to unscrew the top part of the Sennelier Ink Brush, remove the black plastic ring, and then screw the brush top back on to the pen. You can also give the barrel an initial gentle squeeze to get the ink flowing. Hope this helps!
