Ibhave two sizes of the Is brush, love love love them!!

[@mrsbsantiago]

Glad to know! I love it this brush too, especially the pointy tip. :)

Interesting brush. It could definitely make painting small leaves go a lot quicker. It would be nice if they made it larger, too. Thank you for demonstrating it. 😊

[@mrsbsantiago]

I’m glad you’ve found my video. 😊 You can paint expressive loose leaves with the petals brush. ☺️

I would love to get this brush. How do i decide if i should get a size 6 or 8?

[@mrsbsantiago]

What size of brush do you usually paint with?

[@megankoh3490]

@@mrsbsantiago HI. Usually a 4 or 6.

[@mrsbsantiago]

@megankoh3490 I think 8 is good. The petals brush has a pointy tip and the belly is not as fat as the round brush.

Thank you!

@megankoh3490 You’re welcome! Happy painting! 😊🎨

It's a dagger brush

[@mrsbsantiago]

Dagger is more flat than the petals brush. I have a dagger brush too

[@CarolinaCarolina-ph9mx]

A dagger is more like a flat brush with a curved edge instead of a straight one. This brush is closer to a round brush, but with a much longer tip. I've seen a script type brush that is very similar to this. Ah, found it. I can't add a link or KZbin will delete my comment, so google 'Alvaro Castagnet needle point brush'. His are natural hair brushes. The reason the brushes are designed like this, for him, is that the fat end of the brush holds water and paint to feed down to the long, skinny pointed hairs, so it paints much longer than a regular liner brush would do. The Princeton brushes are synthetic, so won't paint as long as his natural hair brushes, but they would probably do well enough for most of us. I have a billion brushes, but this one is a tempting addition. 🙂
