Choosing & Using Brushes When Painting With Acrylics

Video Transcript

" Hi! This is Brenda and today we are talking about acrylic painting. Now for this paint job of course we will need some good brushes. I have about 4 or 5 here that I seemed to use on a regular basis in my projects. Now this first one is a little spongy type of brush and it is easy to clean and it is easy to work with, so I use that quite a bit. I also use a stenciling brush. As you can see here it has got a flat top and it is thick and it is short. I use that for some of my projects. This brush I use quite a bit also. It has a square top and it is easy also to work with. This brush here I use for my fine detailing. It is just a very small tipped brush and I am able to do like this with my finger if I want to do some writing with it or some detailed work. This brush is a bigger brush; it covers more surfaces. It also has a flat top and I use it in a lot of my projects as well."
