Cheap brushes
Someone at the art group last week showed me a set of three flat brushes he had bought from 'the works' for £1.99! Being quite keen on a bargain I thought I would risk that considerable sum and give them a try! I used the largest 1.5" flat for the wet in wet sky and the lake. I used the 1" flat and 0.5" flat for the trees and their reflections. I added the boat and rocks with a small round brush when the washes had dried. To be honest I can't see any difference between these brushes and the synthetic flats I've had in the past. As one brush would be twice the price of one of these, I think they are a good buy!
