Top 5 Tips to Find the Perfect Paint Brush:
1) Always buy a quality brush.
2) Buy it from a reputable dealer.
3) Ensure that the dealer is an authorized retailer or distributor of the brand of brushes you are looking for.
4) Do not buy brushes that have been sitting on the shelf for a long time.
5) Ask the people at the store if they have any brushes that have been sitting on display for more than 1 year and ask them to see one or two in your price range. You may be surprised to learn that those brushes have been sitting on display because no one has bought them due to their poor quality.
The reason why almost all art stores do not do this is because when customers visit them, they are often in a rush and will buy anything just to get out of the store fast and get home quickly so they can start painting. Most of these people will only find out how bad the brush was hours after they get home, when they notice how much paint has dried up inside the brush, which will make it hard for them to paint smoothly with it. This is why you should always take your time when buying a brush and make sure you know what you are doing before you buy one.

I cannot tell you how many bad brushes I have owned in my life. Fortunately there are some great companies out there that make beautiful brushes, and I can share with you some of my favorite ones.
I hope that this article will help you find your perfect brush, so let us jump in!
The best paint brushes are the ones you need and really like using. I have been an art dealer for 30 years, and I offer a lot of paint brushes that I think are great. I don’t push them because my goal is to make a lot of happy customers, not to sell a lot of brushes.
But if you are buying your first good paint brush, it can be hard to know what to look for in terms of quality and price. So here are some tips on choosing the right brush for you…
When it comes to art supplies, there are plenty of things that you can get away with buying from the local store. However, when it comes to brushes, especially for oil paints and watercolors, you need to invest in quality. In the long run, it will be worth the investment.
Tapered brushes are great for applying paint more smoothly and blending colors together. The pointy end is great for reaching those tiny spaces on your painting while the wider end is ideal for covering large areas.
What is a good price range? It depends on the type of brush and your budget, but $15 or less is usually a safe bet.
And remember: buy artist-quality brushes and never go back!
Hello, dear collectors and art lovers! My name is Peter Pomponi. I’m a professional painter and art dealer from London. I want to tell you some things about finding the best brushes.
1. You should never buy cheap brushes. They are made of low-quality material and they lose hair too fast. The most of them are too soft or too stiff, so they must be used only for the one painting style you like.
2. Buy good quality natural hair brushes if your art requires long hours of work at the easel. Some painters like synthetic brushes because they don’t get damaged easily, but natural hair brushes have better brush tip and spring back quicker than synthetic ones.
3. Buy sable paint brushes if you’re working on small areas or details as they lay down more color with less strokes than hog bristle brushes, which are stiffer and hold less paint in their belly. Sable hair is softer and finer than hog bristles, so it’s more responsive for detail work, but it also has shorter life span and loses its point faster.
4. Synthetic paint brushes are easy to clean as they don’t absorb much water, which makes them great for acrylics that dry quickly, but natural hair absorbs more water

I went to the art store and bought a few brushes. I chose The Masters brush series. These are synthetic brushes, but they hold a lot of paint and they are very responsive. My favorite brush is a 5/0 size called “round point”. It has a nice sharp point that holds a lot of paint and doesn’t need much cleaning, which is great for all the detail work we do.
