I love the drawing, very nice details on the bristles. I have a couple of waterbrushes too (mine are Pentel) and honestly I think they're even better than sliced bread. Hope you’re feeling better!

And thanks for sharing about the Niji brush. I bought one recently too but haven't even taken it out of its wrapper yet. You have inspired me to give it a try :) That’s a great drawing!

I like your toothbrush picture - has a nice graphic quality to it and the addition of colour sets it all off beautifully. Hope you are feeling much better now.

I'm sure that you know they come in small, medium, and large - but recently I also found a wide (1cm) flat brush which is great for covering large areas. They do clog and that is really frustrating. Find a good sturdy hatpin and just run it carefully through the tiny hole you can see when you unscrew the reservoir portion from the brush portion. The hole is the top opening of the water channel that runs down to the brush. Since I work small, I haven’t used anything but Niji waterbrushes for over 2 years.
