Similar to flats, but shorter hairs make a stiffer brush. • Dagger/Strippers: Long chisel edge for easy, fine lines. Vary pressure for thick-to-thin ribbon effect. • Detailers/Spotters: For fine detailing. • 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. • Grainers: Grainers produce a repetitive pattern of thin lines. The head of the filbert grainer is curved. • Liners: Similar to rounds, but with longer hairs. Liners have a large color carrying capacity and makes long, fluid strokes. • Mops: Mops have a large rounded shape that lays in large areas of color with a soft edge. • Rounds: Smaller sizes are typically used for detail work and larger sizes tend to be used for washes and filling in color. • Washes: A wide, flat brush used primarily to lay-in large amounts of color, to wet paper, or for blending.
