Sharpie Creative Mrk Brush AST Pk12

Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this office supply item! I absolutely love to write and doodle with colored pens and markers, so I was very excited for the opportunity to test out the Sharpie Acrylic Creative Marker Assorted Brush Tip 5-pack. Sharpie is a classic and trusted brand that has been around for a long time and has products you can depend on for great, long-lasting use.These acrylic markers have a brush tip with a paint effect which makes them work on light or dark paper. I love how the colors pop! The colors do not bleed through paper. I especially love how the color does not transfer from the paper to your hand as it glides over what you've written or drawn.

I love how the colors pop! The colors do not bleed through paper. I especially love how the color does not transfer from the paper to your hand as it glides over what you've written or drawn. This package comes with 5 classic, rainbow colors that are perfect for any art project or doodling. You can angle the markers to either color with the tip for a finer point, or you can angle it to be more of a brush stroke. You can also layer these colors over one another without losing the integrity of the individual colors and they are distinct in their own color without bleeding. I especially love how versatile these are in the way that you can use them on pretty much anything - paper, wood, metal, ceramic, glass, rock and canvas!These make for a great addition to any art lover's arsenal of products! Or if you are like me and just enjoy some simple doodling, these are wonderful markers. These are right on brand for Sharpie and prove even more what awesome products they produce. I can't wait to use these and hopefully improve my artistic abilities.

I was able to test these markers as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Overall, I really liked using these markers. The ink came out very smoothly which was great and the lines were bold. I wish there were more colors to use, but they had a good color selection based on the size of the pack.These markers work great on a variety of surfaces, but the vibrancy can change a bit depending on what media you’re using. I used them on just regular paper, a small canvas, and a ceramic pot. They worked pretty well on all of those surfaces, and I was pretty impressed at the lack of bleed through on the paper. I feel like they still will bleed if you’re coloring really heavy, but overall I was very pleased with how they performed. They do take a little bit of time to ... MoreI was able to test these markers as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Overall, I really liked using these markers.

I feel like they still will bleed if you’re coloring really heavy, but overall I was very pleased with how they performed. They do take a little bit of time to dry depending on how thick you go, which sometimes was problematic, but it also lent itself to a mild blending effect if I was intentionally trying to blend the colors a bit without ruining the tips.The ink vibrancy was good, but some colors popped better than others. I would be curious to see how they do on black paper because some of the light colors might pop better than they did on the media I used. The bullet tip made great bold lines, but I wouldn’t recommend these for anything with fine detail. It’s just a lot harder to get a fine line with these, but the bold lines they do make are amazing for certain projects!I think the thing I like the most about these is how easy they are to use and how smoothly they work. The look they make is like a paint pen, but much less hassle and a smoother, more controlled ink usage. I definitely would recommend trying this product.

I received a 5 pack of Sharpie Creative Markers from Stellar Product Testing Panel. I had high expectations for these markers after reading all of the surfaces they work on on the packaging. Also, the Sharpie brand is well-known for it's consistent quality. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in the coverage of these markers. I tried them out first on blue heavyweight cardstock, but the ink ended up looking streaky, even after a few coats. The ink also stayed wet for longer than I'd hoped which also caused the fibers of the paper to pill. The other surface I used them on was a vinyl portfolio cover for my son's card collection. It wasn't as streaky looking on this surface, but again, I had to use several coats to get only okay coverage with the markers. I was still ... MoreI received a 5 pack of Sharpie Creative Markers from Stellar Product Testing Panel.

It wasn't as streaky looking on this surface, but again, I had to use several coats to get only okay coverage with the markers. I was still able to see the black surface after going over the project three times. This happened with all five colors. I noticed the red marker was more on the orange side than truly red as well. While the purple was vibrant and a nice color, black would have been more useful in this assortment.Something I liked about these markers was the fact that they were ready to write straight out of the packaging. They definitely held up to the no priming or prepping claim. The amount of ink was perfect as far as not puddling, running, or dripping. The bullet tip was a good size for medium sized projects and didn't breakdown at all while using them. I wanted to love these, but they just weren't it for me.
