AOOKArtist Paint Brushes Superior Hair Artists Flat Round Point Tip Paint Brush Set for Watercolor Acrylic Oil Painting Supplies (9 Round Point)

Used these to paint details on the walls of my son’s room. Great brushes and the price is right in. As long as I wash them after each use they seem like they’ll hold up for a long time.

These brushes look like watercolor brushes, and I am always a bit skeptical when I see a set described as good for many different types of media. I tried them with watercolors because that is what I use most of the time. I liked how well they held the shape, and the great variety included in this set. They go from detail to I would guess size 12-14. There is no information in the description here about what they are made of, nor any at all on the package. They are packaged liked very cheap craft brushes, and do not come with tubes to protect them, like many even moderately priced brushes. In mt experience they do perform better than many of the lower priced synthetics, but.... they are less than ideal for watercolors. They do not pick up paint the way a good natural fiber brush does and so does limit what you can do with them. I really do want brushes I can remove paint or pick up excess water with. I imagine they would be better with more solid media like acrylics or oils. They are OK, but not the best for watercolors.If you pick these up, a reminder that they arrive coated with something to keep the shape, which needs to be washed off with soap and water before use.

Nothing to dislike

Love them. Work beautifully with watercolor paints! Just wish I'd gotten the ones with shorter handles. But they work great! Good price for the quality.

The AOOK Art are paintbrushes are long and have a pointed tip. I paint with acrylic paints daily and was hoping that the pointed brushes would offer more precision. The tip does give me better control over where the paint is going compared to other styles. I wish the bristles had a little more stiffness but the precision of a point is helpful. They absorb paint nicely and distribute the paint evenly. They rinse quickly as well. I have used them daily for around one month and they have not lost any hair. I will update as needed.
