Round - 2500 Series
When people think of a fine art brush, they picture a round. The iconic, rounded shape is versatile, allowing artists to lay down washes, fills, and lines of all sizes. Rounds on the larger side can efficiently transform wide surface areas with fewer strokes. Those with finer points excel at delicate lines and intricate details. This brush is on a long handle.

- Questions
Love this brush!
I love this brush because it has a great feel of balance in your hand and a nice snap back. I also purchased the brush restore and it works wonders on your frayed brushes.

Gallon brushes
Love these! They work almost like sable with oil paint .. I will re-order in other sizes and shapes!

Golden Taklon
I ordered the Natalia Fabia limited edition set (pink ones in the photo) as my first set of Trekell brushes, and instantly fell in love with the golden taklon rounds. I immediately bought three more in different sizes. I am looking forward to replacing my other round brushes for oil paints with these. They hold their shape, carry the heavy paint and snap back! They also clean up super easy with Trekell's brush cleaner!

Great brushes
These brushes are holding their shape and have a great feel to them. I paint with oils on canvas and panels, these brushes are working well for both surfaces.

Golden Taklon for oil portraits
These brushes are my absolute favorites for Alla-prima as well as classic portrait painting on smooth panels. Especially layering paint wet-on-wet is a pleasure when using them.

Ruined
I don’t know that I will ever be able to buy another brush from anyone else but Trekell! I can’t say enough good things about ALL of the brushes I’ve purchased from you. Thank you, thank you thank you!
