Thank you everyone for your prompt replies, I hadn't expected to receive so many and they all demonstrate what can be achieved with these inks. I particularly needed to know that they can damage brushes as that never occurred to me so many thanks for sharing this information.
I will try them out and direct some strong hints about what I'd like for a present as I never know what to ask for. I'm very interested in the painting that Sylvia did as my previous attempts with Brusho have tended to resemble an explosion in a chicken factory and I've come home with multi-coloured fingers!
The possibilities for more abstract work must be endless and that will be interesting for me as I normally work in a very precise fashion and I will look up that review on pol.
Many thanks again for your advice, it's greatly appreciated.

I like FW inks for their vibrancy and they are very colourfast. I like Brusho for the lovely effects you can get when the colours separate when applied to wet paper. also you can sprinkle the powder into a wet wash. Although they claim to be colourfast I have found that some of the colours have faded. Maybe this could be overcome by sealing with an acrylic varnish that has UV filters. I haven't tried that so don't know if the colours would run.
