Jenny's Crayon Collection: Brush Marker

Crayola Made Brush Markers!

When Crayola first started in the early 1900's they were a revolutionary company. They were the first company to come out with revolutionary crayons. Years later they came out with colored pencils and then markers. These mediums were all new at the time and changed the world of art. But sadly over the years Crayola has not been keeping up with the trends. They are miles behind other companies now in their product offerings. One of these would be brush markers/pens and the other would be alcohol markers.

A few years back Crayola attempted to enter the brush marker world and this year 2023 they came out with a different iteration of the brush marker.

The new brush markers Crayola is releasing in 2023 are dual ended brush/chisel markers. Points to Crayola on this one, this is what all the other companies are making right now. Where they lose points is these markers are not named. And they are different colors on the different tips. Currently brush markers usually come in both colors when they are dual ended.

The other points against Crayola is that the brush tips only come in 12 colors. 12 colors...not a lot of choice. All the other companies have 60-100+ different colors. If they made a box of their supertips brush markers with all the colors they would have a dynamite product on their hands. All the brush marker companies would scramble.

Here is the brush marker/chisel tip available in the Crayola 12 Dual Ended Doodle Markers.

Here is the packaging for the markers. They come in a tray which is nice enough. My box ripped as I was trying to open them.

Here are all the colors. The colors are not named. But here are the swatches. The first is the brush stroke, the second the thick part of the chisel and the last is the skinny side of the chisel marker.

128 OLO Markers

This spring I had the opportunity to see the new OLO marker. This marker is a super cool new alcohol on the market in 2022 with patented technology. This ink is not in a sponge like a Crayola marker, but is free flowing to the nib. This means that more of the ink can be used. The marker contains 4ml of ink, which is twice as much as other marker on the market. The marker comes in brush and chisel tips.

Here is a sheet of all the 128 OLO Marker colors. This blog post contains affiliate links.

The markers comes with two ends that are screwed together in the middle. That means that the marker can be configured however the user wants. They could have different colors attached to one another, different tips attached etc.

Here is an example of the brush/nib configuration.

The top of every marker contains its color name and number. The letter represents the color family, love that it is super easy to understand!

BK Black
B Blue
BG Blue Green
BV Blue Violet
CG Cool Gray
G Green
O Orange
OR Orange Red
R Red
RG Red Grey
RV Red Violet
V Violet
WG Warm Gray
Y Yellow
YG Yellow Green
YO Yellow Orange

The markers come in 128 piece, 64 piece, 32 piece, and 16 piece collections. They come in half marker sizes and then are attached with a ring. The other accessories include: OLO brush nib, chisel nip, connector rings, brush handle (which I would love) and a 128 and 64 piece marker stand.

I am not seeing an 8 piece on the website, but it might be available other places.

Here is a pretty picture that was colored using these markers. It looks like it was printed it is so good!

Here is the color wheel. I love their methodical naming system that divides into color families and the numbers get more intense the more saturated and darker they are.

What do you think of these markers? I would love to get my hands on a set. I was going to save up to buy a COPIC marker complete set one day, but these seem a lot easier to come by and the colors are so pretty. Click here to find these markers.

2022 Sharpie Brush Twin Markers 12 count

I first saw the Sharpie Brush twin at Creativation Art Materials in 2022. At that time there was a possibility of 24 brush markers from Sharpie. I was more excited about this than I was about the fact they had the ultra fine tip on the bottom which is also pretty cool too. How it works with stores is companies will pitch ideas and stores will pick them up. I do not think any stores picked them up because they are not for sale. They did appear on Amazon for a time, but there is no inventory. Here is crossing my fingers the 24 pack shows up sometime.

That aside the Brush Twin Sharpie markers are really cool They can product 3 different size lines and are great for coloring and lettering work. They include a brush tip and an ultra fine point tip. No more searching for markers. What is also really great is the ultra fine point is on the marker and the color matches the brush tip. Sharpie does not label their markers, and this could be a tricky task otherwise. Sharpie has some other Brush Tips I will post about, but these markers are different in design. They have a thicker barrel and the tip is slightly different. I colored with them and they were much faster to use than the regular Sharpie fine point. I know my kids would like these more too. Here is the box.
