ARTEGRIA Watercolor Brush Set, 10 Professional Soft Synthetic Squirrel Paint Brushes, Including Pointed Rounds, Flats, Dagger, Oval Wash

I have several Princeton watercolor brushes but I find that I use these Artegria brushes more than I do my expensive Princeton ones. They hold water well, keep their point and snap back nice.

A Great Set for Intermediate Beginners As an intermediate beginner, I was looking for a set that was a step up from a basic starter kit without breaking the bank. This brush set is fantastic and a major improvement over the craft store brand I started with. The brushes hold a good amount of water and the bristles are smooth. I also love how easily they clean up. So far, I haven't experienced any shedding, which is a huge plus. Overall, this set is a great value for the price and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their brushes without a huge investment.

I am new to watercolor so I didn't want to spend a ton of money, but I still wanted a relatively nice set of brushes. I really like these, they haven't had any stray hairs, they hold a lot of paint, and they are easy to clean. I keep them in the little cardboard tube that they came in, which works great at keeping them from becoming mishapen. The bristles are really soft and flow nicely instead of being stiff as a board. I like the variety of brush sizes, I've probably used them all at some point but my favorites are the 8 and 10. You can get tiny details even with as large as they are. The bristles hold their shape very well. I don't know much about brushes but they look and feel like a nice quality set to me, and they are great for a beginner such as myself that is looking for a nice set that won't break the bank.

I have enjoyed these brushes. They hold water and have a great point on the end for fine detail work. I have not had any shedding of bristles. A good value for the money.

I haven't painted with watercolor for probably 50 years, and needed brushes. The assortment in this set was just what I needed. They worked so well and were easy to get my stroke "groove" back. The packaging and care in assembling the set is just awesome. There is also an ebook you can download that clearly illustrates how to use each brush and more importantly how to care for your new brushes. What an awesome purchase. So glad I bought these

A few years ago, I started using Silver Brush Co. Black Velvet watercolor brushes, very good quality brushes that I like better than sable. They are fantastic and I highly recommend them for my students, and most professional artists I know love them and also recommend them. Even though their price point is modest in comparison to sable and higher-end brushes, they are still out of reach for many of my students who have modest incomes. When I was shopping on Amazon for the Black Velvet brushes, this set came up as a similar product, and after reading a few reviews, I took a chance to see if they might be a reachable option for my students. They come in a nice and sturdy cardboard cylinder, with a velvet bag that is nice but not very useful. But the brushes - wow! I continue to be impressed the more I use them. They are not “Black Velvet” level, but they are close, and certainly a quality enough product for artists at all levels. The 10 brushes represent a good range of options, from fine detail rounds, a small and large flat brush, a dagger striper, and the 3/4” oval wash, sometimes referred to as a “cat’s tongue”, a super brush for cutting in around objects when knocking in backgrounds. The value is truly outstanding, and I now have several sets that I keep in my teaching bag, my plein air kit and one in the studio. The belly of the brushes hold a lot of pigment and water, and the release is excellent. They do not quite have the length of the genuine Black Velvet brushes, but the point is nearly on par. For the price of one good brush it is a whole variety. I would love if Artegria made a few specialty brushes in a companion set - a couple of “rigger” script liners, a rake brush, a 2” wash and a fan brush would really round out the collection. The only negative is that they lost a few hairs in the first few uses. This set is an outstanding value and even pro artists will not be disappointed. I am a professional watercolorist, artist and teacher, and Past President of the New England Watercolor Society. I teach watercolor at several facilities for artists at all levels, and I am very glad I found this set and will recommend them to students in all my classes.

I recommend these brushes to my art students to purchase. This is a great set of watercolor brushes to start learning with and grow with while learning water techniques. They are a wonderful bargain for the price. The various sizes are just what a watercolor artist needs.

I’m a newbie at watercoloring. Of all the brushes I’ve purchased in the last 3 months, these are by far the best. They hold water and pigment well, keep their point perfectly and clean up easily. The variety of brushes have enabled me to paint with more precision.

The brushes are of good quality, the customer service is excellent as well!

Excelente calidad!!

Ich bin Anfängerin mit Aquarellfarben. Ich arbeite gerne mit diesen Pinseln, bei meinen ersten Schritten mit dieser tollen Technik.

I was pleasantly surprised, these surpassed my expectations. The tip is a revelation, it holds its shape. The brush also holds water and watercolor paint beautifully. I really enjoy using these paintbrushes, even more than my Princeton Neptunes for watercolor. Really great set, great price, great everything.
