Aqualon Wisp Angular Artist Brush Set, 5-Piece

I was so excited to receive these Wisp brushes that as soon as they arrived, I tested them on my painting. The fact that they are angular really helps when creating curves, etc. I've been painting a lot of animals lately and the wisp brush helps save time rather than creating single stroke lines, although in order to create realistic looking fur, it's sometimes necessary to create single stroke feathering at various parts of the animal's body. The 1/8" brush is perfect for painting hair/fur on the animal's face, and I've been searching for this size a long time. I was concerned about the fact that these brushes are designated for acrylic and water color painting, and as an oil painter I was afraid they would be too soft. It is so difficult finding specialty brushes for use with oils, so I was willing to try these as an alternative, and they worked fine! You just have to be sure to dip only the brush tips into the paint so you don't get too much paint that will clog between the separations making it useless for creating separate strokes. The bristles hold the paint well. I would think this would be the same application method for acrylics as well, but having never used that medium I'm just guessing. Amazon no longer has these angular brushes in stock. I must have purchased the last set; however, the straight or filbert style works the same way.

These brushes were perfect for making hair for a dog i was painting. So easy to clean, they did a great job & i think i got my money's worth.

A little pricey. LOVE the effects I can create. I wish the handle was lighter and shorter. Not as ergonomic as I hoped

I've only experimented a bit with these brushes but they make nice even lines for adding grass or fur details. Nice set to have on hand.

Order arrived on time when promised. I apparently didn't read correctly as I was expecting there to be only 3 brushes and the package was of 5. Definitely can see where they would help with palm trees and probably leaves and flowers. Great value for the money. Would recommend them and would put them on my list of "buy again" if I needed to replace them.

Perfect design for adding detail to my artwork.

Bristels look like they were trimmed with a weed whacker.

Makes great boxes and plaids.

Arrived in perfect condition. I do paint by number canvases using acrylic paints. The brushes work well for feathers on birds or fur on animals.

Caros para si calidad, las cerdas estan descuidadas y su corte es desigual, no ha pasado el control de calidad . No los aconsejo.

These brushes are good quality looking forward to using them

Helping, painting bushes,, I would recommend it.

Ideale Pinsel zum Malen von Landschaften. Toll für Gräser. Durch die Zahnung gelingt das wirklich sehr gut. Kann ich nur weiter empfehlen.
