Premium quality brushes have coated wood handles labeled with our classic gold lettering, and synthetic bristles that fit into a metal ferrule. -In the world of brush options, there's no substitute for the filbert's flat, oval tip when laying down, or filling in, rounded organic shapes. For this reason, filberts are particularly useful for painting flower petals and foliage. -Flat brushes are fantastic for lettering and typography, or for creating wide, even swatches of color. We especially love our Size 22 for painting large areas in a few simple strokes! -Mop brushes are naturally fluffy and soft—wonderful for creating light washes or calligraphy script. The bristles puff out a bit, which lends toward beautifully varied brush strokes. They're also handy for lifting a good amount of water when making pre-mixtures! (please keep the plastic and metal wire wrapping ON! Removing this will ruin the brush, as the wrapping holds the brush hairs together!) -Round brushes are an excellent choice for precise line or detail work. Depending on the pressure and angle of application, you can achieve a thick swath or thin line in a single swipe. These all-around brushes are a favorite of beginner and seasoned painters alike, and a great place to start if you're just building your quiver! The size 8 is also great for kids Imported from Germany.
