Painting Colour And Brush

Round brushes are the most versatile and widely used brush for watercolor painting. Their shape makes them suitable for small details and delicate lines, but also for broader strokes and washes. If you're thinking of splurging on a high quality hair, like Kolinsky sable, it will be best put to use in the form of a round brush. A fan brush is commonly used to blend colors but is also perfect for painting hair, grasses, or thin branches, although you need to be careful not to make identical or repetitive marks that look unnatural. Possible uses for a fan brush include: Stippling (spreading out small dots or short dashes).
