You can adjust the size and strength of these by clicking SETTING and use the sliders (an example of what it will look like is previewed at the top) These pens should only cost a small amount (less than £1 in multi packs) and are available to purchase online.Ĭhoose your brushes and styles by clicking pens & brushes button and select from LIBRARY – scroll down the icons to try out different brushes and art textures.
