6000FB FILBERT size 16 - Synthetic Acrylic and Oil Artist Brush from Princeton Art Brush

SHAPE:  Filbert 6000 Series
SIZE:  16
NOTE:  A FILBERT is a narrow, flat brush with hairs that come to a rounded point. Used on its side, a filbert gives a thin line; used flat it produces a broad brush stroke; and by varying the pressure as you apply the brush to canvas, or flicking it across, you can get a tapering mark.

Quote from Marion Boddy-Evans:  "A filbert is my favorite brush shape because it can produce such a variety of marks. Most of my paintings are done with a No.10 filbert. I don't throw away worn-down filberts as they can be useful for dry brushing; I don't feel sorry for them as I bash the hairs to spread them out."
