Questions & Answers

What would you have to say about how well this brush blends ?

As far as I know, I have not used this brush with acrylic paint. Based on my experience with this brush, I believe acrylics would blend well with it.

Which materials are used to make the bristles?

This brush is NOT made of synthetic materials. Bristles made from Hogs are used for making them. In addition to holding water, they also hold

What is the best way to lay flat wash on dry paper using this brush?

Watercolor paper is very easy to wet when painting with this brush and the wet in wet effect is wonderful. This is why it is great for laying out flat washes. As well as painting landscapes, it can be used for that! This is a great brush, so have fun with it!

Is it possible to lay a wash with this brush ?

The brush should not be used for this purpose. Water doesn't seem to stay in this brush very long. A blending tool is used for blending the edges of where two colors meet, or to soften the edges of colors already on

Selected User Reviews For Sterling Edwards Blend/Glazing Brush Blue - 1 In

It works well for Loose Watercolor, but the bristles become looser
3/5

The top reason I bought this brush was to use it as an animal friendly substitute for a hake brush for doing loose watercolor paintings. Although it works fairly well for that, it continues to lose bristles after a few uses and can be a bit frustrating. This brush seems to have a problem with that.

The brush is nice and stiff
5/5

It's a good brush to use with watercolor paint to lift it or blend two colors on paper together.

Brushes with this are useful
5/5

It is possible to use this brush in many ways. For most of my watercolor work, I use it to soften the edges or lines. In addition, it works well for wetting the paper before a wash, and I have used it to lift paint on watercolor paper.

5/5

g. As an example, you can use sky, grass, etc. Brushes such as this one are suitable for both watercolor and acrylic painting. There is no culpability of brushes for my lack of ability as an artist.
