Paintbrushes: The Essential Studio Tool

A quality brush is the foundation of any painting practice. DeSerres carries a wide selection of paintbrushes in natural and synthetic bristles, available in rounds, flats, filberts, fans and more. Whether you paint in acrylic, oil, watercolour or gouache, you'll find the right brush for your technique and skill level.

How to Choose the Right Brush?

Brush shape determines how paint is applied. Rounds are versatile and ideal for detail work and line drawing. Flats cover large areas quickly and create sharp edges. Filberts offer a soft, rounded stroke well suited to blending. Fan brushes add texture and create natural effects. Bristle type also matters: natural hair holds more paint and works best with oil and watercolour, while synthetic bristles are better suited to acrylic and gouache. Pair your brushes with a good brush cleaner to extend their life, or explore our full Brushes & Painting Tools collection.
