Great markers for young, beginning artists

My 14-year-old is a budding artist. She has some real talent, but I didn't want to spring for the real name brand alcohol markers until she's a little older and more responsible with her things. These are budget-friendly so that buying a whole new set isn't an issue after she's run through most of them. It also gives her a chance to familiarize herself with how they feel and draw/color. I've been very pleased with the selection of colors, and her art is very vibrant. I love the canvas storage container that came with them. We have ordered the set twice now, and I was disappointed that several of the markers were dried out when we received our second set. She didn't mind too much because they weren't colors that she was overly fond of, and she still had many from her first set that worked well.
Overall, I think we will continue to purchase these sets until she is old enough to have earned her first set of professional markers.
