Draw on Your Watercolor Paper without Leaving Lines!

- See how the Pilot Frixion Pen can be used to draw on your watercolor, and the ink disappears when heat is applied! Watch me work on a watercolor sketch and demonstrate this technique.
NOTE: There have been questions about whether the ink reappears when it is cold. The Pilot Corp. website says this: "The ink will reappear at temperatures under -10°C (14 degrees Fahrenheit)." I live in Arizona, so I'll never be able to test that, but I did a test today by taking the same sketch in this video, and I put it in the freezer and covered it with a frozen gel pack for two hours. The ink did not reappear. Since I live in such a warm climate, I will continue to use it. But test it for yourself before you use it on good paper. If you live in a very cold climate, it may not be right for you.
CORRECTION to the brush I was using: It is a Princeton Heritage brush, not a Princeton Neptune brush. The Neptune brushes have dark bristles.

Brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
Yes! I figured this out a while ago, put it through some tests, it does work well, especially if you can’t see very good :-)
Brilliant. I use for sewing. Never thought to use on paper! So excited to try this out.
Thank you, Kat. Note my disclaimer on the video page that this ink can reappear at temps lower than 14 degrees. I live in Arizona, so that's not a problem for me! But I thought I should mention it.
Not seen this idea before, thanks!
Thanks Stevie! Great tip!
Thank you, Barbara!
I've been using this for months. It's great. You definitively can use it for tracing. You can add your own pen over it if you want or change things . I cover my area I've painted with cardstock and hit it with my drier in areas or wait until the end. I bought a pack of multi colors for the drawing that will remind me of certain colors in areas. No more pencil lines!!!
Great idea! I bought a red Frixion pen the other day, to help me with the layout of my line and wash paintings. I used to use pencil for the layout, but I’m left-handed, and the pencil becomes a mess! I’m a little worried about trying the red pen on a good piece of paper, but it sounds like you’ve used different colors with success.
A great tip. Blick carries these pens and I put one in my cart.
Thanks for the info! I didn't know that Blick carries them. I hadn't heard of them until someone mentioned it recently on Facebook.
Great tutorial!
Thank you, Cindy!
wow 0 completely gone - amazing, isn't it? Does it ever re-appear, over a period of time? I had a fabric marking pen once that was perfect - disappeared - but over time rea-appeared again, making my lovely quilt not so lovely any more.
Hi Deanna, so far it hasn't re-appeared, but I have only been using it a couple weeks. However, I learned about it from Tracy Pounds (Miss Tracy Creates on Facebook), and she has been using them for much longer, and she has not had that problem. I will watch the work I used it on and report back. By the way, I just was at Walmart and bought a red Frixion pen, and that is going to be a good test to see if it re-appears.
@@SteviePaints Oh great - thank you so much for that info. Good to hear some positive stuff from another artist. I will definately check it out and try it for myself!!
@@deannamunro8148 Deanna, see my response above regarding the issue of the ink reappearing if it gets cold.
@@SteviePaints thanks stevie - I will need to keep that in mind. Wondering now.....does it disappear once warm again....hmmmmm....
If the ink gets cold it reappears. Nice for sending secret messages, I wouldn't be using them on my watercolors.
Thanks for your comment. See my response in the comment above. Happy painting!
Does the ink disappear even if it’s covered in paint?
Yes, I tested it that way, too.
So does the ink reappear if the ink gets cold? Someone asked that question, I'd really like to know.

@@SteviePaints 😂 love this answer 💕🤣 thank you I may just buy one, I'm in Canada half the year is hot and half the year is cold, could be fun
@@nicoleperron3315 If the ink ever reappears in the cold weather, please let me know! Now I’m really curious.
@@SteviePaints I've used these for years - it does reappear if it gets cold. (I tested it a long time ago by putting it in the freezer. 😂) I used to love them for journaling or using in my planner, until I left my book in the car one day and it all disappeared! perfect for this use or on fabric, though!
