This range of short handled paintbrushes offers a high quality for an excellent value whether you prefer to paint with oils, acrylic or watercolour. 
Care:
Caring for paintbrushes is essential to keeping them in good working condition and to their life span.
Oil: dip the paintbrush in a solvent such as taltine. Clean in soapy water and rinse in warm water.
Acrylic: clean in soapy water and rinse in warm water.
Practical information: Never let dry before cleaning. 
Using a hydrating paintbrush cleaner after using taltine or soap prevents bristles from drying and keeps the supple shape of the paintbrush.

Watercolour is one of the most rewarding mediums to learn, and one of the most portable.

DeSerres carries everything you need to get started: watercolour paints in pans and tubes, quality brushes that hold water well, cold and hot press paper, and the accessories that make the process easier. From first washes to finished paintings.


What do I need to start watercolour painting?

Three things matter most: paint, paper and brushes. For paint, a basic set of 12 colours in student grade is enough to start; professional grades offer better pigment concentration and lightfastness. For paper, always use watercolour-specific paper of at least 300 g/m2 to prevent warping. For brushes, a round brush in sizes 4, 8 and 12 covers most needs. Add a palette for mixing, masking fluid for reserving whites, and you're ready to paint. Explore our Paint collection, Paintbrushes and Paper to build your watercolour kit.
