Princeton Aspen Series 6500 Oil Synthetic Brushes

Excellent

My preferred brush for oil paint!

After oil painting it cleans up completely with Murphy’s Soap and maintains the sharp, tidy bevel at the point. It dries quickly. I have 3 sizes and love their performance.

Aside from the need to apply generous amounts of paint with hog hair and leave fantastic character behind; these synthetic brushes come close. They excel at applying a controlled amount of paint over distance. I love the control and dexterity of application edges. The filberts are limitless for function and soft enough to blend colour gently when working wet on wet. Vey happy for the price. Cleanup is a little harder but worth it.

I’ve tried many brands of oil brushes. Princeton Aspen are the only ones I’ve found that hold their shape and clean up easily.
