Neptune Synthetic Squirrel Brushes – Mottler

Description

Mottlers are wide, flat brushes with soft, flexible filaments that lay in even, seamless color across large areas, ideal for backgrounds and broad wash techniques.

Princeton’s Neptune line is their softest, most absorbent synthetic watercolor brush line, engineered to mimic the feel and performance of natural squirrel hair while offering enhanced durability and value. Designed specifically for watercolor and gouache, Neptune brushes hold an exceptional amount of water and pigment, releasing color smoothly and evenly to create vibrant, flowing washes and rich, luminous layers. Artists praise their supple bristles, fine points, and versatility across shapes like rounds, quills, oval washes, and mottlers, allowing for fluid transitions from expansive backgrounds to delicate details.
