Some time ago, a friend of mine, who just started the paiing class, came up with ehusiasm and said, “I wa to buy a brush set, but I don’t know which is better for Gouache. Everyone says it doesn’t matter, whatever your tail was! ” I smiled and remembered the first days that I had made it difficult to pai myself with the same mistake.

All brushes may not be differe, but only some brushes are suitable for gouache. If you are like my friend in this area and don’t know what the best brush is for Gouache, join us.
The criteria for choosing the best brush for gouache from DigiKala Mag’s view
First, the type of brush hair is very importa. Natural brushes are just like a small sponge. The result is that the lines are softer and softer on paper. But artificial brushes (nylon or fiber) may not be as soft as a natural brush, but their durability is longer and easier to wash. Let’s say this inside the pareheses that for Gouache, which is a bit thick color, many paiers prefer to use artificial brushes so as not to break down early.
You might think the handle is just a simple wood or plastic, but believe it can have a great impact on your comfort. Wooden handles feel better, but good plastic handles are lighter, and if you pai too much, your hand will be tired later.
