The special pencil, recommended by Dan Welden, is the Stabilo 8046 aquarellable watercolour pencil. It blocks out the UV beautifully dry, and if you add water, can be used as a wash.

About Me
- John Brebner
- Married to Allison for 45 years, 3 sons, David, Russell and Paul. I have been primary school teaching in New Zealand for 32 years and for the last 11 years have been developing a Book Art Studio, Library, Art Gallery and substantial warehouse of printmaking equipment and materials. We have a Letterpress Printing and Bookbinding Museum that is a working collection. I have invented an A4 relief printing press and an A3 hydraulic printing press that I manufacture and sell throughout New Zealand with sales into 5 countries overseas. Allison and I have written, illustrated, set, printed, bound and published over 100 titles of artist books.
For this drawing with the stabilo 8046 do you need the aquatint screen? or only if you use the stabilo as a wash? greetings Mimi
