PrincetonHeritage, Series 4050, Synthetic Sable Paint Brush for Watercolor, Round, 12

i love all princeton watercolor brushes, i have several aqua elite in different sizes, mostly round and a few flats. I decided to try the .heritage model after hearing from my friends. I thought they would be a little stiff for me., but they are the perfect combination of stiff hair and excellent water retention. They are also excellent at releasing the water as well. I think ill collect a few more sizes . occasionally i want a stiffer brush but not too stiff. NOw i still use my aqua elite most of the time but the heritage gives me a slightly stiffer brush that still lets go of the water perfectly. i really believe that a combination of these 2 models by Princeton you would have the perfect combination for all watercolor painting.

The brush holds a plenty of water and disperses gradually using long lines of pigmented or thinned paint with generous pools of pigmented paint distributing washes or series of shapes for extended paint coverage. The thick brush and thin point allow for ample varieties of longer brush strokes or individual marks. The sturdy handle allowsloose or tight control. It begs to be played with and practiced like a fine stringed musical instrument.

it has a nice pointed tip, a size I use a lot

It has a nice fine point, good control and is durable. I purchased this for watercolor detail and it works great.

Love these brushes. Came well packaged

Good brush overall, in general the 4050 series is something I would recommend.

Really like these brushes and was surprised because I normally use natural brushes. Perfect for more precise or loose watercolor painting.

Excellent brush for watercolors. Highly recommend.
