Our watercolour paint brushes

The Raphaël watercolour paintbrush

We've partnered with Raphaël to offer an extra special watercolour brush: the No. 4 brush from the 803 series. This 'petit gris' style brush features an extremely fine tip, meaning it holds water exceptionally well. Its dense, flexible bristles let you paint smoothly and freely, making it ideal for creating washes, precise lines, and long, continuous strokes. Plus, when it's wet, the bristles naturally come to a fine point, allowing you to paint with even finer detail.

The ‘Petit Gris' No 12 paintbrush

The Petit Gris No. 12 watercolour brush, a favourite among artists, features a 19cm wooden handle with a sleek black varnish finish. This round-bodied brush has exceptionally soft bristles and a fine tip, perfect for creating precise, flat areas like backgrounds.

Our acrylic paint brushes

Searching for the paintbrush to use with acrylic paint? Check out our Round Acrylic No. 10 and Large Acrylic ¾ brushes.
Their fine, durable, and elastic bristles offer excellent precision when painting contours and lines. And with its flat tip, our large acrylic ¾ brush is particularly great for creating fine lines. Both of these brushes are made with 100% synthetic fibres, allowing you to easily paint on fabric, canvas, paper, silk, cardboard, glass, and even wood.
