Description
The round watercolor brush from lineo Series 108 has a nice and crisp tip. It is made with a special blend of natural and synthetic hair. Our lineo “Maestro Mix” has been developed together with artists. The special mixing ratio aims to combine the best of both, synthetic and natural hair. The result is a wonderful watercolor brush with good painting characteristics. It carries a fair amount of color and has a lovely color flow.
The brush head with its’ seamless nickel ferrule sits on a short indigo-lacquered handle with grip hollows. Because of the handle’s shape, the brush is very pleasant to hold and paint with.
This artist brush is available from size 1 up to size 40. Handmade at lineo in Germany.

Our Understanding of Quality
It is important to us that the brushes you find in our online shop retain their good painting properties even after extensive use. Therefore, our brush makers only work with selected materials that preferably come from Germany or the EU. Not only does this mean shorter supply chains, but it also helps us with quality assurance.
A very balanced mix of soft natural hair and fine synthetic bristle, Maestro Mix, is used for this watercolor brush. A seamless nickel ferrule and high-quality glue are used to keep the hair in place and give the brush its shape. The glossy black lacquered wooden handle comes from sustainable forestry. The varnish is free of SVHC substances and other substances listed in Annex XVII of REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. Our lineo painting brushes are traditionally manufactured by hand.
Brush cleaning
Depending on your preferred medium, the cleaning of brushes slightly differs. However, the paint should never dry on the brush because most paints dry waterproof and can otherwise only be removed with harsher methods. Here you will find a few tips and a video for cleaning your painting brushes.
