Gasenfude...Say WHAT?! Copic Must Have!

Get ready for this!  Copic Gasenfude a Nylon Brush pen (pronounced gas-en-fu-day).  YES, YES, YES!  Not a "Brush nib"...no, no, no, but rather an actual brush with bristles.  Deep black ink, flows beautifully, and can make the thickest or thinnest of lines.  Guess what?  It is Copic compatible too!

I had this idea pop into my head and probably totally butchered it, but here goes.  **Anyone from Japan or if you can read Japanese feel free to private message me if I spelled a bad word.  Hopefully I took the word "love" and was able to pull this off while still keeping its integrity.  I wanted to take the brush tip of the Gasenfude and create thick to thin black lines to look like branches and then add cherry blossoms because it is that time of year (and who doesn't like cherry blossoms?)

  It turned out a little peachy in the photo...really is more pink in real life.  I used 3 Copic markers for
this.  R11 R81 R85.  just adding 5 tear drop shapes together to form blossoms.  Then I added a little of the Pink Multiliner to the centers.  SIMPLE!

Gasenfude I love you!

**tip:  If you use it slowly, you will achieve a smooth line look (like I used it above).  Move it quicker and you will get a fun dry-brush look.  Two effects in one!
