Find the Right Watercolour Brush For Your Needs
As any seasoned artist will tell you, the brush you use directly affects how your paint behaves on the page. For instance, different brush shapes, bristles and materials influence how much liquid and pigment they carry. They also determine how smoothly they apply colour and how much control you have with a fine point while painting.
Many beginners start with round brushes because they are incredibly versatile. They can help them to produce delicate lines with the tip when painting animals, for example, or wider marks by applying more pressure. Overall, it is a terrific choice for artists who want a single brush that can handle a range of fine details, soft washes, and expressive broad strokes when doing their work.
If you regularly paint skies or large areas of colour, mop brushes are another excellent option. Thanks to their ability to hold water and carry more water, they provide smooth coverage across the surface of your paper. This also allows them to maintain excellent flow.
Natural Hair or Synthetic Brushes?
One of the biggest decisions you'll need to make when buying watercolour brushes is choosing between natural hair and synthetic fibres.
Traditional natural hair brushes include those made from kolinsky sable hair, sable hair and squirrel hair. All of which are well known for their good water retention, soft spring and ability to maintain a great point. These qualities make them particularly ideal for artists who enjoy controlled washes and precision work.
Modern synthetic brushes have improved significantly in recent years. High-quality synthetic watercolour brushes now often feature a good snap, impressive durability, and greater consistency in performance, which makes a real difference. They are also available at a more accessible price than some of the other best watercolour brushes you can purchase elsewhere.
Many artists now prefer synthetic options. Mainly, this is because they are reliable, easy to care for and work great across a wide range of painting techniques.
How To Care for Your Watercolour Brushes
If you look after your brushes, they will perform at their best for years to come. That's why we recommend always rinsing your brush thoroughly after each painting session.
After cleaning, we suggest gently reshaping the point while the brush is still damp, then allowing it to dry naturally. You should avoid standing brushes upright while they are wet, as excess water can damage the handle over time.
At ArtStore Online, you'll find quality brushes from trusted brands including Winsor & Newton, Da Vinci and Raphael. If you're looking to mix colours, paint expressive landscapes or add the smallest details to your next masterpiece, please browse our range to find the right brush for your next project.
We hope our range of watercolour brushes helps every artist to enjoy painting and enables them to perform intricate detail work with much greater confidence and creativity.
