University is a range of synthetic general-purpose brushes. They are stiff enough to use with more fluid oils yet soft enough to use with water colours and also offer less visible brush marks when used with oils and acrylics. University Brushes offer excellent spring and head shape retention and will last a considerable length of time if properly cared for. They are an affordable option for beginners or those looking for a multi-purpose brush.

  • Brights: Length and width of brush is generally squared. Similar to flats, but shorter hairs make a stiffer brush.

  • Fans: Brush fibers are spread out making it useful for subtle blending and for textural effects.

  • Filberts: Create a softer edge than a flat or bright.

  • Flats: Longer hairs than a bright, this brush has more flex and a large color carrying capability.

  • Liners: Similar to rounds, but with longer hairs. Liners have a large color carrying capacity and makes long, fluid strokes.

  • Oval Washes: A cross between a mop and a filbert, used primarily for laying in large amounts of color and blending.

  • Rounds: Smaller sizes are typically used for detail work and larger sizes tend to be used for washes and filling in color.

  • Strokes: Strokes have long, rectangular ends, a large color carrying capacity and create long, fluid strokes.

  • Washes: A wide, flat brush used primarily to lay-in large amounts of color, to wet paper, or for blending.
