Create leaves, flowers, and pedals in one stroke. • Brights: Length and width of brush is generally squared. Similar to flats, but shorter hairs make a stiffer brush. • Fans: Brush fibers are spread out making it useful for subtle blending and for textural effects. • Filberts: Create a softer edge than a flat or bright. • Flats: Longer hairs than a bright, this brush has more flex and a large color carrying capability. • Liners: Similar to rounds, but with longer hairs. Liners have a large color carrying capacity and makes long, fluid strokes. • Rounds: Smaller sizes are typically used for detail work and larger sizes tend to be used for washes and filling in color.
