Brushes

• Filberts, flats of varying sizes.
• Avoid soft synthetic brushes and brights.
• Natural bristle and/or STIFF synthetic are best.
• For stiff synthetics I recommend Princeton 6300 series, Silver Bristle or Rosemary Ivory series.
• For a natural bristle, any good quality manufacturer will do. (Robert Simmons, Silver brush, Windsor Newton etc.)
  NOTE:  Bring  at least 2 brushes which are ¾” and 1” wide
