Review: Good water-holding capacity. - I like these brushes. I am new to watercolor, so this is not an expert review, but I know a decent brush. I bought these early on, a complete set of six round brushes, sizes 2-12. They do not shed, they hold a lot of water and paint and work well for me. A minor downside is the markings on the brushes indicating size have worn off, but I can tell which is which. If I were more experienced, I would likely report that while these are good round brushes, they do not seem to hold a pointed tip as shown in the photos of the product. I might not know how to attain the shape but they would not be perfect for any detail work. I need to try and get the point back. Otherwise, a complete set, with water and paint-holding capabilities is a solid buy for beginners and moderately experienced artists. I have bought a size 8 and 4 Princeton brushes that do hold a better point, but for washes on foreground or sky, I go to the 6-piece set as a go-to. UPDATE 2 Forgot one thing… Used some brush cleaner/conditioner and was able to get these to nicely shape with a decent point. They have stayed that way, and are even more useful.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these real kolinsky sable brushes? No one really actually belives they are right?**
A: Well, that is a really good question, I bought them wondering the same thing. I am not sure what they are, but if they are really kolinsky sable then they just aren't made very well, a well made brush wouldn't shed as much as these do. These brushes are great for young artists who might smash them or forget them in the water, or like me I wasn't sure if I wanted to invest in really good brushes. In retrospect I would recommend investing a little more in a couple of higher end brushes, like a #8 and #1 and maybe a wash brush to save time wetting the paper. You can do a lot with just those 3.

**Q: Where are these brushes made?**
A: China

**Q: Do you have short handle watercolor brushes**
A: Long,medium and short.

**Q: The description says the ferrules are a high grade copper and in the spec information it says high grade chrome plated brass.  Clarification?**
A: chrome-plated brass ferrule.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic price points for real Sable hair, (holds water and pigmints lovely).
*by J***N on October 27, 2021*

After starting my new mission in the study of Art, Color Theory, Pigmentation, and all the various components that go into the wonderful world of WATERCOLORS, I sat upon the mission of researching supplies. Being a complete and utterly enthusiastic newbie with NO SUPPLIES WHATSOEVER, I had to be smart in buying all the necessary supplies, (and maybe then some). After consulting some professional watercolorists via YouTube and books on Watercoloring for the novice, after roughly two or four weeks of careful note taking...I was ready to hit Amazon with the knowledge of the most popular TRULY artist graded paints, paper, brushes, etc. To the more popular yet tried and true beginner to mid-level paper, paints, brushes and all the extras needed. - - - The time was now, I had the money (thankfully), make no mistake that watercolorists are involved in quite an expensive hobby/profession. However, If I learned anything during the month of research, I was left with the confidence that a beginner need NOT break the bank. There were a few no compromise situations recommended, but really this is coming from the mouths of folks that have been painting for years and years, yet giving advice on two things (pretty much unanimously) not to skimp on. Those were the paint brand and the paper. EVERYONE seems to love, 'Winsor & Newton Professional' paints, and paper-wise it was, 'Arches' cold pressed 400. I will mention the affordable versions of these great products in a sec. About brushes. Professionals were all over the place. Synthetics, to blends of real & synthetic, to kalinsky Sable, squirell, etc. All agreed that real hair, especially Sable, held the most amount of water and pigmints lovely. Yet synthetic had less shedding and provided rigidity of a nature better suited to them VS natural which sometimes has a mind of its own. This Sable hair 6-pack is hands down almost perfect for a beginner buy, say for the shedding (which is easy to rectify) and most oddly are the extremely long handles. I wasn't expecting that, but maybe I should've read more on the details, as I now prefer a short and thickish handle. They are still quite excellent and remain my first watercolor buy for which gave me a good head start. About the 'compromising', rather the advice of NOT compromising. So paints: Windsor & Newton manufacturer really expensive, yet tried and true professional grade products. HOWEVER, they also sell a lower graded version of their paints, in a series called: 'Windsor & Newton Cotman' brand paints. These are fantastic and they come in basic 6 or 12 pallets, and go up to many, many more pigmented colors. Look them up and I recommend them highly. Honestly, they last a long time and they are of fantastic quality from a company going back hundreds of years. Utilized (not the Cotmans) by this world's most famous of artist throughout the centuries. Lastly, the paper: While paper IS most definitely the most important aspect to watercolors, absorption, and the way the watercolors react to the papers superior or subpar make, is truly an agreed upon fact by professional artists the world over. Is the 'Arches' brand the cremè de lá cremè? Yes and no. Are there other brands of superior quality, 100% cotton (a most important trait), etc? YES! However, 'Arches' brand (made in France) will shock some people who are seeing the price tag for the first time. DO NOT FRET! They sell a pack of 9" X 10" with 20 sheets for less than $20. Trust me, you deserve to experience this paper. It can make the cheapest paints seem amazing. Lastly, purchase 'Arches' AFTER you have a grip on how watercolor works, flows, learning the basic arts, [I highly recommend YouTube as a visual teacher. As there are thousands and thousands of videos available for watercolor tutorials] and science, theory, and how to blend colors. Blending colors is a heck of a lot harder than I thought it would be. After 6 months, I'm still tackling it...although like most of the Arts, music, sketching, and obviously painting...it takes daily devotion and is truly the ONLY way to harness the powers available to all of us. I know this was long and supposed to focus merely on the product itself, but I am so excited by my new found passion for watercolor and artistic development, the joy is something you can't help but want to share. THIS WAS FOR NEW WATERCOLORIST - AND MEANT TO ADD A FEW TIPS OF ADVICE. It is also solely my opinion based on studying and testing myself. HAPPY PAINTING - BUY THE SABLE, YOU WILL BE AT EASE WITH THESE AFFORDABLE GEMS. And don't judge a product by its packaging...😂 Truly
