Cotman brushes are a range of pure synthetic watercolour brushes of the highest quality that have been created using the same skills generated over many years as those used in making the finest sable brushes.

Choosing the right brush is essential, and Winsor andamp; Newton has over 150 years of brush-making experience. This experience enables them to provide several brushes that are ideal for watercolour painting.

Watercolour brushes are designed to control the flow of colour. The perfect brush will have a fine point, the ability to hold and evenly control colour and should be able to spring back into shape after every stroke.

As Gouache colour has the same properties as watercolour, all our watercolour brushes are interchangeable with Gouache, and the same brush characteristics apply.
