The Brush

 The Artist Brush or Brushes


      Brushes come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Mostly you can do just fine with one brush, but it's nice to have a variety to create many different styles of art in one painting.

The Large Bristle Brush

This brush may be used to paint only backgrounds, but can also be used to create an entire painting all on it's own, preferably landscapes.

I mainly use this brush for painting grassy landscapes and covering canvases with a primer.








The Small Round Brush

  This brush comes in very handy when you're painting small details or photo-realistic paintings. I can live on this brush alone for my artwork since both my landscapes and main subject require a lot of details.







The Fan Brush

The Fan brush is a optional paintbrush I suppose, since I mainly use this brush for only waterfalls, but it also depends on your style of painting. If you're the type of artist who loves broad, smooth strokes then this brush is a great tool to have.






Feel free to explore the possibilities and the extent of painting with any brush. Most art stores sell beginner packets of brushes and sponges for very affordable prices, around the ranges of $5-$10.
