Great!

[@scotthaston612]

Yaya I was 1000. Good explanations. All my brushes are hand me downs. So I've always just randomly used things for whatever. All help works when you don't know what you're doing

[@Createfulart]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Ydnis.nedsma]

[@Createfulart]

I'm so glad you're enjoying my channel.😊

[@ziaui4631]

Wow

[@Happyhippy70]

I never Submerge my brush in water, and I use my hand to blot the brush after a slight dip of the tip of the hair in water. I am learning and I thank you for the tips on brushes. Blessings to you

[@Createfulart]

Thanks for sharing!

[@brendascholtz2483]

Great video thanks. Do you have one that shows how you hold a brush ?

[@Createfulart]

I have a free lesson on that when you subscribe at createfulart.com

[@retenhassan9867]

Good

[@teresalowry6340]

Thank you! I have been storing my brushes like that and was told that I am doing it wrong.

[@Createfulart]

I explain why I do each step for taking care of my brushes in the full lesson - www.patreon.com/posts/49201374 I think it is important to learn the why behind it, instead of just say you're doing it right or wrong. Then you can decide based on knowlege instead of opinions. But yes, that's how I store mine and it works great for me and my brushes. 😊👍

[@soimhossen3023]

Ohhh

[@debralearyan8844]

❤💫

[@rawanaz-c9d]

Thank you for the video! My favorite brush is the round brush, cause it can be used for a lot of things! :) What's your favorite color by the way? (Mine's a greenish-blue color)

[@Createfulart]

I love that color too! You'll see it in many of my paintings.

[@GODPROPERTY125]

Thank you now I have better understand what i was doing and how it was doing it i don't know if you cover this but what are the number about on the brushes

[@Createfulart]

The numbers are different depending on the brand but generally the smallest brushes are numbered 0 and the number gets larger as the brushes get larger.

[@davitsafaryan4453]

I didn't know about the soap. Is that a special soap or just a simple one

[@Createfulart]

A special soap for painting and you can find it here amzn.to/3ITlkDJ

[@rowenacalaguas2240]

Does the brush need to be nylon or animal hair?

[@Createfulart]

Great question! Nylon brushes are great for acrylics. Animal hair brushes hold more water and are great for watercolors. You can use both types with acrylics but keep this in mind.

[@retenhassan9867]
