Creative MarkScrubber Watercolor Brushes - Professional Watercolor Brushes for Scrubbing, Blotting, Re-Shaping Edges, and More! - Set of 7

At first I wasn't impressed just looking. For years I've been using my old worn down ceramic bristle brushes. They are gentle and work well until I need detailing. I do alot of lifting on portraits, children and animals. These brushes had some stray bristles I thought needed trimminf...and being nylon I had my doubts...however these are amazing at their job!!! Only use these with light touches and they'll be your best friend! Currently working on a child's denim jacket and the flats gently take away the right amount of wear on the seams with just a few touches! Gentleness is the key. I'd only use these on 100% cotton as they will dig a hole before you know it on paper not meant for being rough on. It appears they are damaging the paper as they pile the paper, but a good quality cotton is made to be worked on. Just wait till it's dry and do few swipes and you're ready to go. I'm currently working on Fabriano Artistic and have done extensive scrubbing thoughout the 11x14 piece and my paper has remained beautiful and receptive for more paint. Try these! But only if you work on quality paper. You can always return them if you're not satisfied. Enjoy being creative!

Happy with the brushes.

This is the second time I’m buying this set of scrub brushes in a year. I use them a lot with watercolor and they are reliable and easy to use.

I am incredibly new to watercolor, learning from tutorials on a daily basis. I have learned from highly skilled instructors that we sometimes need a scrub brush. I use them sparingly but they are a game changer. I expect I don't need so many sizes, but the product is not expensive.

Was perfect for my watercolor painting since I am new watercolors.

They work pretty well

I ordered these after reading someones advice on using them. I wanted to take some color out of a watercolor area I painted. They did exactly that.

These rough up watercolor paper pretty severely so that it almost can't be painted over. They did save me when I found one of my finished paintings had a spill on it - it cleaned up most traces of the spill.

Pour de l'aquarelle.

Great for lifting and gentle on my paper (Arches)
