Blick Master Synthetic Brushes
This is a distinctive brush made of five diameters and three lengths of an exclusive Polymide filament. Each strand is tapered to a precise tip, much like natural hair. The combination of multiple diameters and lengths allows for the formation of color-carrying pockets within the brush. The tapered tips make this the best-pointing synthetic available, especially in the larger sizes. The striking look of this brush, combined with the same craftsmanship built into all of our Master Series watercolor brushes, makes it a pleasure to use.
