Series 202 Acrylix round
These Pro'arte brushes are made for Acrylic artists, whom require precision and detail, tremendous spring and great pointing.
The ferrule is the metal joining the bristles to the handle, and the crimp is the part of the ferrule where it is secured to the handle. The handle is the area of the paintbrush the artist holds, and is usually made of wood or acrylic. The size and shape of the bristles determine the effect and style each type of paintbrush can achieve. A wide, flat brush is designed for painting large areas, whereas a small, tapered brush is ideal for fine, detailed work.
Designed specifically for artists working with Acrylic Colour, the Pro Arte Acrylix 202 Round Brush features synthetic bristles, offering good spring and great pointing adaptability. The short, lacquered handle ensures optimum control for precision detail.
What is a round brush?
A round brush has a circular ferrule, the shape of which may be viewed by looking straight down the brush. A round brush usually has long bristles, which come to a pointed tip.
When should a round brush be used?
A round brush is ideal for filling in small areas, controlled washes and detailed work. Using a round brush, the artist is able to create lines of varying thicknesses, depending on the amount of pressure exerted.  This is due to the brush’s thin tip becoming wider the more the brush is pressed down.
