1. Benefits of Natural Bristles
This brush is made from carefully selected natural pig hair. Natural bristles have a unique property – they absorb and release paint gradually, ensuring an even coating.
- Stiffness: Natural hair is stiff enough, making it ideal for working with thicker paints (oil, acrylic).
- Texture: This tool allows you to create characteristic strokes and textures that bring the painting to life.
- Durability: With proper care, KOH-I-NOOR bristles retain their shape and elasticity for a long time.
2. Ergonomics and Construction
The brush design is adapted for long creative sessions. The long wooden handle, covered with elegant black lacquer, provides not only aesthetic pleasure but also excellent balance. The long handle allows the artist to work while standing back from the canvas, better seeing the overall composition.
3. Versatility of the Flat Shape
The No. 2 size flat tip is extremely versatile. It allows you to:
- Draw wide lines using the full width of the brush.
- Create very fine details by turning the brush edge.
- Precisely fill corners and geometric shapes.
