Tools of the Trade


Windsor Newton Series 7 brushes (watercolor brushes) are what I use. Near the end of school I bought them, quality brushes to last and to help create quality pieces. I for so long didn't think that an expensive brush would work any better than a cheaper brush would and in some cases that may be true but Windsor Newton Series 7 brushes are about the highest quality there is; there are reportedly huge waiting lists to get the larger sizes of brushes. Series 7 brushes are made of natural sable which holds the paint very well and stays together better than synthetic fibers. I have found my series 7 brushes to be wonderful and I've tried to take good care of them. I have them in sizes 0-4 and then one that's a 7 or 8.
