The Winsor and Newton Winton Short Flat Brush is the ideal brush to use with oil based paints or acrylics, whether you are creating your next masterpiece or experimenting with paint for the first time. The brushes produce the bold, defined marks expected from a flat brush, yet the shorter bristle length of this style gives greater control and a thicker colour stroke. These flat brushes are great when using large amounts of colour and for creating texture in your art.
