Pro Arte Series 100 Connoisseur Round Brushes

A Connoisseur brush is a beautiful blend of Prolene and sable. The mix is critical and took time to perfect but the result is remarkable. Here is a brush that satisfies the purist... it feels and looks like sable; it bellies, holds colour and points in the manner which one has come to expect from a Pro Arte brush. It also delights the thrifty with long lasting synthetic content, which helps to keep the price way below a Kolinsky sable. Designed and formulated for use as a watercolour brush, it performs well in every way and has been a great favourite with artists for many years. Seamless nickel ferrules. Black polished handles with red and white tips.

A round paint brush is the most traditional brush shape, and what most people imagine when they think "art paint brush". A decent round brush will come to a lovely sharp point, enabling you to paint fine lines and detail with it. (This is especially true if it's a brush made with top-quality hair.) Look for one that's got a good spring in the bristles, where they snap straight when you take the pressure off the brush.
