Why Use the Best Quality Artist Paint Brushes You can Afford

From one painter to another, good quality brushes and paints are highly recommended for every style of painting. When you can’t get the results you need, it is generally because of the tools you are using. Of course, the type of brush and bristle style will depend on what kind of painting you want to achieve. 

“You only live once. Wealth is in your health, and art is great for mindfulness.” Nicki Comelli 

The Pro Hart Swagger Chunking bristle brushes have been created for use with both contemporary and traditional painting techniques. They are also ideal for other applications, such as dry brushing and varnishing. 

The City of Chungking

The unique bristles of these brushes are sourced from hogs raised in the Chinese region of Chungking. The climate in the city of Chungking is cold, so the boar’s strands are long and sturdy. They are considered one of the finest sought-after Hog bristles worldwide. These unique bristles are known for their full, long flags created as the hair grows. As the bristle strand grows, it splits into two or more tips called “flags.” Flags are split ends. Hair with deep flags has durability, precision, and spring back. 

“By not trimming them creates a brush with more agility and fluid capacity.” cited at Dynasty Brush 2012 

The individual hair that these brushes are made of has outstanding bristle fullness that allows them to hold a large amount of paint. And if you look closely, the natural curve of the hair is positioned inward toward the brush’s ferrule. This maintains a precise, tight brush shape that resists splaying and misshaping over time, even when used with harsh solvents.

The Pro Hart Swagger interlocked paintbrushes will have little to no hair shedding.

  • No.20: 5cm wide, 4.5cm bristle length

The best quality artist paint brushes by Pro Hart Swagger are available as single pieces or in a 9pc tube. 

Each brush features a long 25cm timber lacquered handle making these paintbrushes great if you paint at an easel. Longer handles on a paintbrush allow the painter to stand back and gain a different perspective of their art as they work. 

The Pro Hart Swagger 100% interlocked Hog hair brush range will leave brush marks as you paint. Using acrylic or oil paint, you will see brush marks within the paint film. The stiff bristles will leave brush stroke textures behind as you paint. These brush retention lines give your painting a natural painterly look. They will also provide you with a defined strong edge and sharp details if needed.  

We do, however, highly recommend these paintbrushes to oil painters. If they are looked after well, they will last a very long time and even improve with use over time. 

The Biggest Size 20 Paintbrush

The Pro Hart Swagger large bristle brush being 5cm wide with a bristle length of 4.5 cm, is excellent for blocking in backgrounds, horizon lines, and large-scale abstract art. Anything that requires a large brush; the heads of these paintbrushes are full and thick, which allows them to hold a large amount of paint. If you like to be bold, they are great for slapping large textural paint blobs on your working surface or creating quick textural washes.   

The Smallest Size One Paintbrush

The Pro Hart Swagger small bristle brush is 0.5cm wide with a bristle length of 0.6 cm and is great for adding small details to your artwork. They are great for precision lines, blocking out people in a seascape or cityscape and creating more blocked-type shapes, such as bricks on a building.    

The Pro Hart Swagger interlocked paintbrushes’ most popular sizes are sizes 1, 4, 8 and 10. 

Cleaning the Best Quality Artist Paint Brushes by Pro Hart Swagger

Clean your Pro Hart Swagger interlocked paintbrushes with odourless solvent or turpentine after painting. Once the paint has been cleaned from the bristles, form the tips into shape using Vaseline. Looking after and retaining their brush head shape will help them perform better, and you won’t have the hair splaying.
