Where is a store/company where I can order wide (4 ” and up) but thin brushes for large abstract painting?
mica1978 asked:
I paint in oils and would need very wide brushes that can cover large areas in a single stroke. I have bought this kind of thing from different companies in the past but they always seem to be discontinued – now I cannot find anything like this anywhere. House painting brushes from hardware stores are generally too thick. I need a thin brush (does not hold too much paint) that would accomplish light layering and glazing. I do use gesso brushes for this but they are usually a maximum of 3″ thick. What I would like are brushes that are 4″, 5″, 6″, 7″ plus inches wide. I would need bristle not foam brushes. Any ideas? If you can even suggest company or store names (international is fine) I can follow up and see if they will ship to me. Thanks in advance – all ideas are welcome!
