Bill Buchman ''Zen'' Sumi Brush - Classic 1 - Extra Fine - Japan

Sumi Brushes now offers an exquisite new series of 3 exceptional quality Bill Buchman "Zen" Japanese Sumi brushes: the "Classic" series, hand-made by Japanese master craftsmen. They are made of carefully chosen finely pointed horse hair with durable lacquered wooden handles. This Artist Quality "Classic" series of Sumi brushes features standard size and smaller size brushes that are especially well suited for detailed Sumi and watercolor painting and for fine Eastern calligraphy. Sumi brushes of such uniquely fine quality have generally been unavailable in the US until now and are sure to please both the experienced Sumi artist and the newcomer. All who explore the wonderful world of the Sumi brush will find that it naturally promotes an artistic mood of tranquility and creativity. These Sumi brushes offer the beginning, intermediate and advanced painter both great control and expressivity due to their ideal level of flexibility: the firmness is sufficient to encourage great accuracy and control while the softness and play promote a natural expressivity not found in Western style brushes. They may be used with all free flowing water media: watercolors, gouache, liquid acrylic, acrylic gouache, acrylic and "tech" inks, Sumi and India inks, liquid watercolors, and all other water media. This "Classic" Series - Number 1 - Extra Fine size brush is highly suitable for extra fine calligraphy and very detailed Sumi and watercolor painting.
