Watercolour Paint Brushes; these striking Warhol’s Wife squirrel hair paintbrushes have a quality you can feel.
These are professional watercolour paintbrushes. You will find they have the excellent elasticity and fluid absorption you expect from a brush of this calibre.
You can select from three sizes of these squirrel hair brushes: no.2, no.4 and no.8. Each one tapers to a nice pointed tip.
Use them for anything from background washes to adding fine details to a painting.
Why Squirrel Hair?
The Warhol’s Wife handcrafted squirrel hair watercolour paintbrushes have been designed to hold a large volume of water or fluid medium in the belly of the brush. Squirrel hair brushes hold much more fluid than rival sable hair paintbrushes.
You will find these paintbrushes feel as good to use as they look. When holding these brushes, you will experience much more spring back. A satisfying snap as the brush returns to form after leaving the painting surface.
The luscious hairs fill the round body of the handle. The point has been precisely manicured to create the signature tip. The brush maintains this clean, sharp point as you paint, depending on the hand pressure you apply.
With these unique brushes, washes, bloom effects, and fine details can all be painted with ease. Whether you are using a watercolour canvas or paper.

Squirrel Watercolour Paint Brushes by Warhol’s Wife have very Durable Handles
The Warhol’s Wife squirrel hair paintbrushes feature a subtle, weighty plastic handle. It won’t absorb fluid, shrink or swell. You will never have to worry about it flaking or cracking like a traditional painted and varnished wooden handle.
This short black handle is well-balanced and seamlessly smooth. It fits well in the hand and is comfortable to hold.
The ferrules of these brushes have been stylishly bound with copper wire. This keeps the squirrel hair bristles very securely attached to the handle.
If you maintain these Warhol’s Wife brushes well, you will easily get years of use from them.
Create with a range of Mediums
The high absorbency of these paintbrushes means you can use them with various mediums. They are excellent if you enjoy using watercolours, dyes, inks, gouache, or any other wet medium. Get creative in traditional styles or with some contemporary experimentation.
Pick up the no.8 brush to paint in background areas or create watercolour blooms. For more control, take a no.4 or no.2. These sizes will give you a range of thick to thin strokes. Adjust your hand pressure while painting by varying your stroke width.
Each size brush has a nice point for easily adding detail with your chosen medium.
Are you a calligrapher? These are marvellous paintbrushes for achieving gorgeous long flowing strokes.
Also, perfect if you love to create works comprised of a lovely single expressive stroke. Equally good for landscapes, still life paintings or portraits.
Maintaining your Squirrel Watercolour Paint Brushes by Warhol’s Wife
You should clean your squirrel hair paintbrush after each use. Use a basic paintbrush cleaner such as the incredible Brush Cleaner by Chromacryl.
Give your brush a very thorough clean. Get right down into the ferrule area. Once clean, bring the hairs to a point and place them horizontally on an absorbent cloth.
Once dry, these watercolour paint brushes will hold their shape. You won’t see any fluffy or stray hairs poking out.
