About Art
Brushes
Kolinsky Sable Brushes ; This is the top
grade of hair for holding capacity due to the perfect
‘belly’, excellent snap and spring. Selected and made by
hand enabling the brushmaker to ‘feel’ the belly and thus
form a brush head which is symmetrical and tapered to
perfection.
Acrylic
Brushes ; Brushes used for acrylics, like those favoured by
oil painters, have long handles that allow the artist to
work at a distance from the canvas. Acrylic paints are more
caustic than oils, so acrylic brushes are designed with
synthetics and bristle. Fitch and sable are generally used
only with oil paints.
Hake Brushes ;
A hake brush is an oriental-style wash brush on a long flat
handle. It is useful for laying in large areas of water or
colour, for wetting the surface, and for absorbing excess
media.
