Master oils and acrylics with brushes that balance reach and control
Winsor & Newton designed University Series brushes to handle multiple media without requiring separate brush sets for each painting method. The synthetic bristles maintain enough spring for pushing oil and acrylic paint across canvas while remaining soft enough for watercolor washes on paper. This versatility matters when you're learning different techniques or working across media in a single session.
The no. 235 round features the same brush head as the short-handled no. 233, but extends handle length for easel work. Oil and acrylic painters typically prefer longer handles because they allow you to step back from the canvas while maintaining control, crucial for evaluating composition and proportions as you work. The round shape handles both broad strokes and detail work depending on pressure and angle.
Seamless nickel-plated ferrules resist corrosion from repeated solvent cleaning, while the distinctive red handles with white tips make size identification quick when you're reaching for brushes mid-session. University Series brushes give students reliable performance without the investment required for natural hair, and they hold up well enough that professional painters keep them on hand for underpainting, texture work, and techniques where brush wear is expected.
