a note on brushes

A couple of weeks ago, I purchased a very unique brush. It is a Robert Simmons 15/0. It has 8 or 10 inch long bristles. This brush is perfect for dragging those small clouds across the horizon and making ripples in the water, but the best thing it does for me is make those fine strands of hair on my portraits. I found it performs just as well in oils as it does in watercolor. Nice for adding that little wisp of detail.
