Cotman Watercolour Synthetic Brushes, Short Handle, Pack of 7

As a beginner a nice little set - good value.

Lovely quality slightly above basic brushes. Retain their shape well.Nice looking handles, varying bristle lengths. Sturdy.

Great quality and packing

Very happy with quality, however, all brushes were supposed to be different to each other but I ended up with 2 x round, albeit different sizes.

Value for money

Excellent brushes at the price point, perfect for my needs as an amateur painter who doesn't require premium products whilst still working on technique.

I had to buy Kolinsky Sable brushes for a course I did and ended up switching back to using these. They are an absolute pleasure to use. The bristles hold themselves together nicely, whereas the kolinsky ones I'd bought were much to prone to having stray bristles. Buying another set now for my daughter as these are fantastic value.

As a newcomer to watercolour painting I followed the lead of Bobbie Herron (artist). These are very practical, portable and much better than a very cheap unnamed brush. As BH suggests - less is more when it comes to brushes and colours - especially if you plan to create 'on the go'.

Awesome brushes, great spring too the points and they are the best synthetic brushes that can compare too any sable hair I’ve used. Only difference it doesn’t hold as much ink or colour as real sable does but it gets the job done! Highly recommended. These brushes are a god send. If you want any synthetic hair brushes go for these! Or just a beginner looking for something that can compare too sable hair but don’t have the money too spend on it, BUY THESE.

As a self taught artist, I am reluctant to spend money on art materials without the knowledge. Happy to say I love these brushes and they are a great investment, they are well made, no loose ferulles, and not much in the way of shedding. They hold water and paint well. Definitely recommend. Winsor and Newton have been very good supplies in my limited knowledge of their products but I will invest in more over time...

Comprados así en paquete salieron bastante económicos. Me gustan mucho, al ser sintéticos tienen buena respuesta al recuperar su forma original fácilmente después de presionarlos contra el papel. No son de cerdas naturales así que la cantidad de agua que guardan no es mucha, pero sí noto la diferencia positiva comparándolo con otras marcas como Rodin.

Considerata la marca e il prezzo allettante, ho deciso di provarli.. Sono notevolmente soddisfatto. Ottimi per concentrarsi sui dettagli del proprio acquerello. Li uso insieme a pennelli b&b con serbatoio per grande quando ho bisogno di pennellate più ampie (soprattutto sugli A3 di cui allego qualche foto).Notevolmente soddisfatto, valgono fino all'ultimo euro.

Pros: Aunque son cerdas sintéticas, los pinceles son excelentes tanto para washes como para delinear.Cons: me pareció ver que un par de cerdas se quedaron pegadas sobre el papel.
