Buying watercolor brushes can be an overwhelming experience. There are way too many choices.
It is really not as bad as it looks.
Brushes have different water holding capacities. Also different feels. I will show you what to look for and why you might want to select a particular fiber like sable hair or nylon.
Size too is important, but not the daunting problem it might seem to be at first.
Experienced painters don't have dozens of brushes. Often they have only a few. You too can have just a few brushes that can do everything you want to do.
