Onyx - Synthetic Squirrel
DESCRIPTION
Designed with control in mind, Trekell’s Onyx brushes unite precision with unhampered flow, all without the fear of flare outs. Not the qualities you expect from synthetic bristles, right? And yet, like Trekell’s other synthetic brushes, an Onyx mimics nature incredibly well. We bet you can’t tell that these weren’t once part of a squirrel. So, the only difference is price. So, watercolorists, why wait? An Onyx brush will soak up what you need and paint exactly what you want.

United StatesThey hold in quite a bit of water, amazing quality at an affordable price
United StatesI didn't care for these as much as I'd hoped. They are not as rigid as I am used to... I do prefer a stiffer brush for finer details. But I'll keep trying...
United Stateswonderful quality brushes
United StatesThis brush is nice and soft and holds lots of paint/ water. Great for washes and base colors. The softness also helps preserve the integrity of the paper for longer. I use a lot of water so any help I can get is a good thing! :)
United StatesNo shedding, and they still keep their shape super well after drying. The onyx brushes in particular hold SO much water! I love them!
United StatesLooking at purchasing a few larger ones
