Multi-colored oil based ballpoint pen inks upgraded the Pen & Ink art movement and its four thousand year history! A BallPoint has out sold all other pen systems throughout mankinds history. The oil based inks produced the richest, darkest or prettiest colors in pen history. That advancement places pen and ink's colors on the same level as other art mediums. Needless to say, that's a great event for those interested in doing colored pen and ink artworks or drawings!
In the past Lindy Pens produced the most colored ballpoint inks and today it seems Fisher Space Pens leads the way. The ballpoint is the only pen system in history to use oil based inks that can produce a half tone plus rich colored artworks. Those two features are "Historical" or "News Worthy" to those in the know!
Introducing multi-colored oil based inks, half tones and bold flowing lines via a ballpoint pen is art history in the making.
