PRINCETON Umbria Flat Brush for Acrylics with Short Handle
The PRINCETON Umbria Flat Brush is an artist brush with special synthetic bristles designed for acrylic paints, gouache, casein, and decorative painting. Its synthetic fibers are stiffer than standard taklon, so they carry thicker paint well and hold the shape of each stroke reliably. Combined with a short olive handle with a Velvetouch finish, it gives artists excellent control, flexibility, and long-lasting performance.
