Winsor & Newton - Series 965 Golden Nylon & Natural Hair Wash Brushes
Series 965 Golden Nylon & Natural Hair Wash Brushes
Lay down even watercolor washes across large areas without streaking
You need absorbency to hold plenty of pigmented water, but also spring to maintain control as you drag color across paper. This blend delivers both. The flat, broad shape spreads washes evenly across large areas, backgrounds, skies, initial tonal layers, while the hair combination prevents pooling and streaking that plague purely synthetic alternatives.
Winsor & Newton constructs these brushes with seamless nickel-plated ferrules that won't corrode when constantly saturated, crucial for tools that spend most of their working life soaked. The ferrule design also prevents shedding at the crimp point where cheaper brushes fail. Copper-colored handles provide quick visual identification in your brush jar.
Available in multiple widths to match your working scale. Load one with diluted color for atmospheric washes, or use smaller sizes for controlled gradients and sky transitions. The natural hair component maintains a soft edge that blends beautifully, while synthetic fibers add durability for techniques that stress pure sable, like scrubbing out clouds or lifting color from dried washes.
