Water brushes are inexpensive, versatile, easy to use, and fun to work with, so you may not "need" one, but after watching, you may just "want" one!
No matter which brand you look at, water brushes can enhance your painting skills, help develop an understanding of water control, and even make your experience with watercolor painting more fun than with traditional brushes.
Whether a beginner or a seasoned artist, water brushes are a valuable tool.
Brands like Sakura, Pentel, Caran D'ache, Tombow, Holbein, Derwent, Kuretake, Faber Castell, and even Barnes & Nobel each have a line of products. There are tons of private label brands like Arteza, Maike Depot, and Junreox, made in Asia and similar to more expensive brands. Some have unique features, like a push-button or body design that won't roll off your table.
For me, I use Pentel Aquash Water Brushes and have been enjoying them for years. Here, I talk about why they're perfect for travel, on-the-go, or when I have a few minutes to paint and don't want to pull out water and cups, paper towels or cloth, and my expensive brushes.
GEAR:
• Etchr cold-pressed 100% cotton sketchbook
• Sharpie fine & ultra-fine pens
• Pentel water brushes
• Daniel Smith watercolors
