Crimson Taklon - 6" Short Handle
Trekell’s Crimson Taklon line is the home of next-level, all-media standouts. Stiffer than a Golden Taklon, these red beauties excel at acrylics and oils, additionally capturing the hearts of watercolorists thanks to a unique design. A special tapering process gives each brush a natural animal hair ability to retain sharpness while soaking up a lot of liquid. Then, a double heating process provides that ever-reliable Trekell snap. Buy one today and enjoy an innovative spin on an old classic.
Round - 1000 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 short handle.

The shorter, evenly-shaped hairs of bright brushes are ideal for easily controlling heavy and thick applications of paint with succinct strokes. If you're planning on laying paint atop of paint in terse bursts, these brushes are a must. This brush is on a short handle.

Filbert - 1020 Series
The filbert's medium to long hairs come together in a soft oval, forming a perfect shape for figurative blending and for working within tight areas. The filbert is also a master of flow, making flat lines look rounded. This brush is on a short handle.

Script/Rigger - 1050 Series
The script brush's long hairs are formed into a narrow point. Tasks requiring delicate details, such as highlighting, outlining, and lettering, are where the script brush has made its name, though its paint-carrying capacity also allows for long, unbroken strokes. This brush is on a short handle.

The liner brush is similar to the script brush, just with a smaller, narrower shape. If a project calls for deft control, such as lettering or tight outlines, a liner brush is the right choice. This brush is on a short handle.

United StatesMagic Brushes
As I learn to paint better it was decided to up the brush game and I landed, through recommendation of some admired artists, on these brushes. They say for a little bit after arriving until I could muster the time to sit down and explore whether or not there was much difference to what I had found at big box stores. To my delight they just felt different. I can’t say whether they are truly better or it’s just placebo effect, but does that really matter? I’m delighted to find a company that I can go to and get a consistent product that helps greatly in improving the quality of my painting experience. I love them. High recommendations for what I refer to as my magic brushes. Fantastic and looking forward to spending a great deal of my extra money acquiring and exploring more of the product line.
United StatesDetail brushes
I really don’t like these brushes. The crimson synthetic hairs are perfect for crisp detail or feathering edges
United StatesSmall Gesso Panels
Well built, evenly gessoed and the small sizes are terrific.
United StatesDisappointing
I love Trekell brushes, I use them for my watercolor work all of the time. Because of how much I love the brushes, I decided to buy the smallest ones available for painting miniatures with. Unfortunately, both the brushes arrived to me with the brush misshapen while it still had the protective plastic sleeve over the tip. Kind of hard to paint 30mm miniatures when you have brush hairs sticking out all over the place. I know I can probably reshape it myself, but I shouldn't have to for a brand new brush.
United Statesnot too bad
not sharp enough but not a bad brush
United StatesFavorite Brushes. Ever
I adore these paint brushes. Amazing for finer details within gouache and watercolor paintings. They can also be used (just as joyfully!) with oils & acrylics. Impressive snap! Love the 6” handle option as I am very near-sighted! Thanks Trekell! <3
