The Princeton Aqual Elite series are high quality and function very well, holding lots of water and pigment. Their soft bristles glide easily on your paper. They are a nice size and weight and are very comfortable to use. These high quality brushes are a great value for the money.

Excellent for WC. One of my go-to brushes.

Great for learning how to do watercolor details.

I used this brush togethet with other size brush to paint this picture. It’s bigger than I thought. Some brand #2 are smaller. This one looks like #4 for other brands. No complaint. I was able to paint rose petals and the result is great. I didn’t know I bought 2 brushes of the same size but I didn’t want to cancel because I would be cancelled all orders, and just noticed it minutes after I checked out. But it Prime day and bought this on discounted price. It’s good to have extra good brush.

I am happy with my little brush. I have always bought Kolinsky type brushes and my artwork has style has change a bit and they were not good for what I do. Too soft. I love the point on this little guy, and it holds more paint than you'd think looking at it. I will be trying another size soon.

Lovely water color brush.

I wanted to get back into watercolor painting and after watching several artists on Youtube use this brand, I thought I'd try one. It holds water well without over wetting the paper. The point holds very well and I found painting very thin lines to fat strokes were easy to achieve. Good for beginners but also professionals (I'm intermediate). I use primarily paint flowers. Have purchased a couple other sizes since then.

So happy to find exactly what I needed for a class without having to go from store to store
