    Uni-Posca Paint Marker Pen - Medium Point - Set of 15 (PC-5M15C)

    Review

    Because a box of these paint markers costs over $30, you’ll want to save them for finished pieces. The paint is permanent on canvas, but can be scratched off of non-porous surfaces like glass. It has an opaque finish, and the colors stay vibrant after the paint dries.

    Factors to Consider When Buying the Best Markers for Canvas

    Tip Size

    Paint pens for Rock Painting, Stone, Ceramic, Glass, Wood, Canvas. Set of 12 Acrylic Paint Markers Extra-fine tipYour choices in tip sizes are extra fine, fine, medium and broad. Extra fine produces the thinnest lines, and broad writes the thickest lines.

    What tip size you need depends on how large your drawings will be. If you’re coloring large spaces on canvas, then medium and broad point would be your best choices.

    Keep a pack of extra fine or fine paint markers on hand for adding accents, detailing and drawing finer lines. You’ll have more control over the marker, so your intricate drawings will turn out better.

    Type of Tip

    Tip sizes for paint markers are bullet, chisel and brush. Drawing and writing on canvas is easiest to do with a bullet tip. A bullet tip is a rounded top that writes lines of a consistent thickness. Most paint markers have bullet tips, including those we listed above.

    Brush tips marker are suitable for calligraphy writing because they adjust the thickness of your line based on how hard you press. Some artists enjoy drawing with them too, but it takes practice to master.

    Chisel tips are like an in-between type of tip. They are slanted in order to give you the ability to draw thick and thin lines depending on which angle you hold the markers.

    Type of Paint

    TOOLI-ART 18 Acrylic Paint Pens Assorted Markers Set 0.7mm Extra Fine Tip for Rock, Canvas, Mugs, Most Surfaces. Non Toxic Water-Based, Quick DryingPaint markers have water-based, acrylic or oil-based paint. Water-based paint tends to dry the fastest and doesn’t have strong odors. They wash off easily too.

    Acrylic is a type of water-based ink that becomes permanent when it’s dry. Like other water-based paints, acrylic is easy to wash off and doesn’t emit a lot of toxic fumes.

    Oil-based paint markers take the longest to dry, but the upside is they’re easy to blend. Another benefit of this type of paint marker is the dried paint tends to be more durable.

    Oil-based paint can be difficult to wash off, so you may want to go with water-based if you’re buying paint markers for young children.

    Markers for Canvas FAQ

    Can you use markers on canvas?

    Not all markers are suitable for use on canvas. Some markers will have problems with skipping as you attempt to draw on this rougher surface. Check that the markers are suitable for canvas before buying them.

    How do you keep your paint markers in good condition?

    Store your paint markers horizontally, and correctly prime them before attempting to use them. The manufacturer usually includes instructions on how to prime them. Always remember to put the cap back on your paint marker to prevent it from drying out.

    If you want to clean the tips off after using them, use a paper towel. You don’t want to use water on a marker tip that isn’t watercolor-based.

    How do you use paint markers?

    You’ll need to shake the marker in all directions for 2‒3 minutes, then press it down on a scrap sheet of paper. Don’t be alarmed if the tip goes inside the marker as this is supposed to happen with most brands. Wait a few seconds for the paint to flow to the tip, and press it down another time.

    You should repeat the process of waiting a few seconds and pressing it down until you can draw a line of paint. If the paint is skippy, you need to press down on the tip again and wait several seconds.

    It’s important to be patient and not repeatedly press the tip down, or you’ll damage the markers. A lot of paint may flood out if you do that as well.

    Making the Decision

    Our top choice, the Artistro Extra Fine Tip Acrylic Markers, meets the needs of most people. They are easy to prime, fun to use and fast to dry. You can trust the markers to have a steady flow of paint while you focus on drawing your designs. They can be used on light and dark surfaces as well as canvas fabric.

    If you need medium point pens, then we’d say the best markers for canvas are the Uni Posca Medium Point Paint Markers. They’re waterproof, non-toxic and known for being of excellent quality.
