A is for Arabesque & Acrylic!

There are 12 brushes in the Arabesque set and each one features a durable Japanese nylon bristle that is not only cruelty-free, but full of bounce for the most pleasant painting experience. For easy reference, conventional sizing as well as the type of brush is printed on each brush. You will also find the letter “A” to remind you that these love Acrylic paint!

You can use brushes as you like, but let me list out each of the brushes and why they are included in this set:

Flat Brushes I consider these the most versatile of brushes as they allow for thick or thin lines with just a twist. They are great for creating long lines and painting quickly.
There are 5 Flat brushes offer control and variety of line. You can paint out to edges with ease and precision.
The huge Gessoh brush is especially wonderful for backgrounds and collaging larger areas.

Flat 6: start with this for smaller details and precise edges.
Flat 8: for color that flows smooth like butter but creates bold and crisp strokes!
Flat 10: Feeling bold but still want control? This size is your friend.
Flat 14: Want to feel like flying with your colours? the larger the brush, the greater the freedom!
Gessoh : this 1″ wide brush is for large tracts of colour!

Angle Brushes are for making clean, fine lines. If you have an edge that’s close to another object or if you want a crisp, straight line, grab these brushes! They can also be pivoted as you use them to create wonderful varied strokes that go from thick to thin and back again.

Angle 4
Angle 8
Angle 12

The 10 Round brushes graduate evenly from a size 4 through to a generous size 16. They give you wonderful choices to suit any purpose.

The lovely thing about Round Brushes is the pointed tips married with the full belly of the brush that can hold plenty of pigment. They can be used to create a modulated, linear mark by applying more or less pressure during the stroke; the pointed round is ideal for fine detail. Used on their sides in a scribbling motion, they’ll make an irregular, broken patch of color. They are a wonderful general use brush!

They are housed in a canvas wrap that has plenty of space for more brushes and painting accessories.

Because the Brush Ballet are of such exceptional and soft quality, each of the brushes arrive with a special coating to keep the shape as they travel to you.
Please rinse the watersoluble coating away before use by holding the brush under running water, gently massaging to release the coating as it softens.

They are especially suited for Acrylic paint, but can certainly be used with all watersouble media as well – watercolour, inks and LayerCake.

Do not leave your brushes standing on their bristles in water – this will dramatically shorten their lifespan and potentially bend the bristles.
If you’re painting with watercolor, you can wash your brush using clean water in a jar.
If you’re painting with other mediums such as acrylic, it’s best to rinse your brush immediately after each use and at the end of a creative session give them a proper wash with gentle soap and water.
Once clean, reshape the bristles with your fingers and lay flat to dry on a paper towel to dry before storing upright again.
