This week I'm taking a look at the versatile water-brush - one of the most often used tools in my sketching kit. There are various brands to choose from. How do they work and which is best?
If you really, really enjoyed this and would like to perhaps have an original sketch, I've just set up a Patreon account where I regularly post drawings to the patrons. It's thanks to these fine folk that I make these regular films and keep them ad free...

Holbein Water Brushes are good, they have a breather hole so the air does not contaminate when it suck air in when you use it. But they are hard to get hold of. They hold a lot of water and have a good point.

Thanks for the tip! I’ve never seen one before but I’ll keep an eye out :)

Thank you for this video! I think im going to get a set of three Derwent ones, theyre the most affordable ones i could find

That’s probably a good choice as a taster. The Pentel ones are nice but most are very small - I think I only ever use the big one :)

Really good review, great idea about putting ink/paint in the reservoir.

@StefanMarjoram Год назад

Thanks Joe! The fine ones make really good - and cheap - ink brush pens :)

Thanks for this. I can’t believe they’ve been around for 15 years! But in a pinch, a small spray bottle filled with water may do. Or large-you can have access to a lot of water without having to worry about spilling.

@@pennycandyys I was just packing my bag the other day, saw my sprayer, and I had that exact same thought. I’ll give it a go next time :)

Wow amazing video!!!! I want a flat brush for Roman Capitals! But theres not much reviews 😭. Thanks for this!

Thanks so much - very glad you found it useful. The flat brushes could be quite interesting filled with ink or wash. Though you will find they are not as good quality as an average paint brush - which has much finer bristles. Probably better suited to big and bold calligraphy rather than finer work.
