Winsor & Newton - ProMARKER - Permanent Twin-Tip Marker - Alcohol Based

ProMarker ink is alcohol based and the colours are formulated using the finest professional quality dyes. It's this formulation that makes the colour apply so evenly, giving you supremely smooth, consistent coverage with no unsightly streaking. With ProMarker, it's easy to achieve a flawless "print-quality" finish when colouring by hand.

Blending and Colour Depth

ProMarker colours have a translucent quality and can be layered to achieve varying depth and opacity. This makes them incredibly versatile in rendering light and shade, giving your work a real sense of depth and structure, whatever the subject matter. See below for some essential tips on how to blend and layer with ProMarker colour...

Using the ProMarker Blender

A colourless ProMarker Blender is available and can be used to help merge and blend your ProMarker colours together. Because alcohol based ink dries so fast, using the Blender can take a little practice. The key is to always lay down plenty of colour and work quickly - you'll want to keep the work surface as wet as possible.

A base coating of Blender applied to your paper before applying colour will keep the ink wetter for longer. This makes it easier to blend any colours applied on top and helps achieve smooth coverage. You can also use a pre-coat of Blender to make your colours appear more subtle and muted.
