The $8 brush set from the dollar store honestly shocked me
I usually only buy my brushes from the art supply shop downtown, figured anything cheaper had to be junk. Last month my sister tossed me a pack of these weird synthetic brushes she got on a whim, told me to try them for my background washes. Three paintings later and honestly the flat brush lays down color smoother than my $16 one. Has anyone else found random cheap tools that just work better than the pricey stuff?
