Princeton Velvetouch Synthetic Brushes are perfect for watercolors, acrylics and oils. The synthetic fibers of this brush are expertly designed to hold a high volume of paint, with the perfect spring and tension to create controlled, repeatable brushstrokes. I really like this brush, and I’ll be using it not only to continue to practice floral painting but with all painting subjects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
