What can you do with it, and how does it stand out?

This little water brush or any similar brand is a must have for your travel art set! It’s water reservoir eliminates the need for carrying around a water container. I always tote one of these with me, along with my watercolor pencils or travel watercolor palette.

Any tips or techniques for using it? Likes/ dislikes?

There are a lot of different brands and styles out there but I would recommend investing in one of the higher quality water brushes, so it’s holds up and you don’t have issues with leakage. I would also getting a size/style of brush tip that is the most universal to carry around with you. I love the small-medium sized round. Also, carry a rag to clean the brush in between colors, or cut a small bit of sponge to stick in your color palette. Squeeze the brush and dab again the rag/sponge to clean.

Do we stock it regularly, or is it a special find?

Yes, we stock it all the time!
