September 29, 2006, Newsletter Issue #37: Painting With The Right Brushes

Tip of the Week

Selecting the right tools for the right job is critical to the success and enjoyment of your painting project. And there are three areas of concern to consider when selecting your brush. The type of paint you will be using, its composition, the necessity of solvent, and viscosity is one. Next think about your surface and its texture, firmness and absorbency. And finally, the technique you will use and the your desired effect. Do you want a highly textured surface or do you want your strokes to disappear? Always pick your brushes with the careful thought and consideration of the final product and the other materials (paint and surface) that you will be working with.
