Medium of Choice: Oil
“When I first started painting with the oil medium, it was difficult to find brushes that were both high in quality and endured hours of painting at an affordable price. I followed a lot of Trekell Pro Team members at the time and noticed that signature black with a silver stripe on their brushes. So I decided to give it a try since they checked all those boxes. And I’m glad I did because I haven’t used another brush since."
