Absolutely lovely paintbrush. Great for washes. Even distribution of color, pigment, water, etc. Came wrapped nicely and arrived Undamaged. Fantastic value for the money less than $20 each. Holds a lot of paint and has a great capacity. Although it is synthetic, very much feels like a natural brush. It’s very soft, but it doesn’t shed.

I love how smoothly this brush adds water or paint. Spreads evenly.

I am a beginner at watercolor, but this product is recommended by several artists. So far, so good for me.

Princeton Heritage is my preferred brand for watercolor brushes and this one didn't let me down. The taklon fibers are durable and they hold plenty of liquid. Unlike a squirrel-hair brush, taklon fibers are springy and they keep their point for a long time. The fibers are longer than a regular flat brush so they hold a lot of water but you have to anticipate that they give under a lot of pressure. I highly recommend these and other PH brushes.

Has a bit more spring than some of my other flat brushes. I like it better for some painting applications - like grasses.
