It is an indispensable tool for the artist who demands flawless performance across expansive painting surfaces. What is a mottler brush and what is it used for? A mottler is an extra-wide flat brush designed primarily for covering large areas quickly and seamlessly. In fine art, it is typically used for laying down large background washes, priming canvases, varnishing, and creating perfectly smooth, streak-free applications of color. What makes this brush exceptionally good? A selection of soft, medium-stretch synthetic Kazan squirrel fibers has been carefully chosen for this brush. This innovative fiber can hold a substantial amount of fluid paint and delicately release it onto the paper or canvas without leaving unwanted brushmarks. While it performs beautifully on smooth surfaces like fine-grain canvas and paper, its high paint capacity also allows it to handle rough or highly absorbent surfaces exceptionally well when fully loaded with heavy paint. Usage Tips for a Mottler Brush: Skies and Large Washes: Dip the brush into a generous amount of diluted watercolor or fluid acrylic and pull continuous, broad strokes across the paper. The streak-free release guarantees perfectly even skies and backgrounds in a single sweep.Flawless Varnishing: The extreme softness of the synthetic Kazan squirrel makes this an ideal tool for varnishing a finished painting. It distributes the varnish evenly and thinly without scratching or disturbing the delicate layers beneath.Saturating Coarse Surfaces: When working on highly absorbent or rough surfaces, load the brush heavily with thicker paint. The wide flat shape and flexible fibers help push the paint deep into the texture of the surface.
