When choosing paint brushes, it’s important to evaluate the medium, technique, and desired effects. Watercolour artists should prioritise brushes with soft bristles that retain their shape when wet, while acrylic and oil painters need brushes with firmer bristles for applying heavy-bodied paints. Brush shape is another critical factor—angled brushes are ideal for sharp edges, while fan brushes add texture and blending effects. Handle length can also influence your choice; shorter handles offer precision for detail work, while longer handles provide better control for broad strokes. Durability and quality are key, as well-made brushes maintain their performance over time. By considering these elements, you can select brushes that elevate your artistry.
