Your cart is empty.The Size 6 Gainsborough Oil & Acrylic Fan brush is made from Chungking hog’s hair. This Professional-grade brush is generally the best choice for oil and acrylic paint due to the flags that hold color. The strong, durable brush easily manipulates heavy paint. It has a unique taper that causes the bristles to interlock, which maintains its original shape and helps control the placement of color. Fans are not an everyday brush, but are perfect for special painting that requires the gentle spreading and blending of colors, such as in portraiture and landscapes. Since 1905, Grumbacher has been a brand trusted by students, professors, art conservationists, and professional artists throughout the United States.

This is a very well made brush. It is a slight bit softer or less stiff than my other brushes. It works very well for the final touch ups.

Fantastic brush here fellow painters. It's about a foot long (11" handle), bristles stay in place, ferrule is tight and made of a nice stainless steel. Bristle are stiff but not absurdly so. Hopefully I'll get many years from it.

Grumbacher usually has good quality brushes but when I got this one the hairs started falling out into my paint after the second time using it. I do not let my brushes sit in water, so this shouldn't have been an issue. Maybe it was a one off in manufacturing; but it certainly was a pain going out to buy another in the middle of a painting so no bristles would be left in the paint.
