Furry Tail Arts - Suti - 3 pcs Travel Watercolour Brush Set

ABOUT PAINT BRUSH:

A paintbrush is a tool used to apply paint, ink, or other types of fluid to a surface. 

A paintbrush is made of four main parts:

Bristles: 

• The bristles are the part of the brush that holds the paint. 
• They can be made of natural materials, such as hog hair, sable, or ox hair, or synthetic materials, such as nylon or polyester. 
• The type of bristles used will depend on the type of paint being used. For example, natural bristles are best for oil paints/watercolours, while synthetic bristles are best for acrylic/gouache & watercolour paints.

Ferrule: 

• The ferrule is the metal band that holds the bristles in place. It is usually made of brass or steel.

Handle: 

• The handle is the part of the brush that you hold onto. It is usually made of wood or plastic.

Crimp: 

• The crimp is the small metal piece that secures the ferrule to the handle.

Flat brushes:

•  Flat brushes have a wide, flat head that is good for applying paint to large areas.

Round brushes:

•  Round brushes have a curved head that is good for creating smooth, even strokes & adding details to the paintings.

Mop brushes:

• Mop brushes have a rounded or slightly oval shape with bristles generally soft and floppy, which makes it ideal for delicate or subtle work, such as blending or softening edges.

BRUSH CARE:

• When choosing a paintbrush, it is important to consider the type of paint you will be using, the size of the surface you will be painting, and the desired effect. 
• It is also important to take care of your paint brushes by cleaning them after each use and storing them properly.

Here are some tips to remember while using the paintbrushes:

• Hold the brush with a light grip.
• Apply paint to the surface in a smooth, even motion.
• Don't overload the brush with paint.
• Clean your brush often to prevent the paint from drying on the bristles.
• Clean your brushes immediately after each use. 
• Use warm water and mild soap to clean the bristles.
• Rinse the brushes thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
• Shape the bristles while the brush is still wet.
• Allow the brushes to air dry completely.
• Store your brushes in a cool, dry place.
• By following these tips, you can extend the life of your paintbrushes and keep them in good condition.
• Experiment with different types of brushes and techniques to find what works best for you.
