My Favorite Natural Bristle Brush
These are my absolute favorite brushes (Escoda Clasico)- and I have been using them for about 20 years. These are my workhorses that I use for 90% of all the painting I do. I typically use a size 24, which is 2” wide.

My Favorite Nylon Bristle Brush
These are the only nylon brushes that I use (Raphael Sepia). They are particularly good when you need to cut in a hard edge. I typically use a size 40 or 50, which are 1-1/2” and 2” wide.

My Favorite Art Crayons
Marabu Art Crayons are the only art crayons I use - they are fantastic! They are water-soluble and work with watercolor and acrylic painting. When they dry they are permanent. Using them is a great way to add linework to your paintings.

My New Favorite Canvas
U.S. Art Supply Gallery Stretched Canvas. I recently found these canvases and they are a really good buy compared to others of similar quality. I love that the canvas is back-stapled. Give them a try and see what you think!
