I use Liquin which is so hard on brushes. I have tons of hog bristles that I will use on larger paintings. I used to favor filberts, but like brights for the little daily paintings, #4 mostly.Jennifer Bellingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08129390129489412548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-643591416765136797.post-58551145952158126342008-12-16T21:51:00.000-08:002008-12-16T21:51:00.000-08:00a beautiful arrangement, Jennifer. Beautifully pai...a beautiful arrangement, Jennifer. Beautifully painted too. I am recently working with some softer brushes that were given to me as a gift. They're a blend of synthetics and they really slip and slid over the gesso boards I use. They leave more refined edges than bristle brushes. It's giving my paintings a different look, entirely.Mary Sheehan Winnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07739304038978908921noreply@blogger.com
