How does water color brushes differ from oil painting brushes?
This is for my art class
so specific answers would be helpful
watercolor brushes are mad to hold much more liquid and water that is why the majority of them have the tip they do. the bristles are also softer also they bristles should not be ratty they should be perfectly smoothed once dipped in the water i paint in acrylic and u can use almost any brush...not too sure on il brushes but check out these links
