A professional grade brush series made from 100%natural hog hair, ideal for acrylic or oil painting. The Connoisseur is a go-to brush for any artist looking for a high-quality hog hair brush at an affordable price range. Hog hair bristle possesses a superior paint retention with heavy-body acrylic and oil paints. The natural hair is more absorbent than synthetic filament, which allows paint to flow evenly onto the bristle tufts, resulting in smooth, even strokes. Connoisseur has been used in fine art galleries and exhibitions for years. If you're looking for an affordable hog hair brush that will last a long time with proper care, this is it! With hair filaments more flexible than traditional hog hair, this brush has increased versatility, making it a go-to brush for all painting practices from realism to abstraction.

What this paintbrush is built for

With hog hair, this brush is medium stiffness that adapts well across paint types and has moderate spring for general-purpose strokes. It holds relatively little water, best for drier techniques, and retains a generous load of paint for consistent, uninterrupted coverage. Paired with a long handle wood handle, it is built for full-arm strokes at the easel, suited to oil and acrylic painting.

Water Retention
0/5

Holds relatively little water, best for drier, more controlled techniques.

Paint Retention

What makes this brush work?

Flat brush

Choose a part of the brush to learn what it does. Product-specific properties appear separately above when the relevant metafield is populated.

Bristles

The working end of the brush carries and releases paint. Its shape, material and condition influence the mark it can make.

What does stiffness tell me?
Stiffness describes resistance when the bristles meet the surface. The product-specific rating above appears only when a stiffness value is recorded.
Why does springiness matter?
Springiness describes how readily the brush returns toward its shape after pressure. It can affect control and the feel of a stroke.
Water and paint retention
Water retention describes how much water the brush can carry; paint retention describes how much paint it can pick up and hold. Use the ratings above as product-specific guidance when supplied.
