Rosemary & Co created travel versions of their beautiful filberts at our request after artist Sushma Hegde’s popular Wildflower Watercolors demo last year featured this unique style of brush. Use the size 4 for more precision and control, and play with larger shapes and washes with the size 8.

Filbert brushes can be used on their flat side to create broad strokes with rounded ends. Turn the brush to the thin side to draw fine lines and marks, suggesting subjects like stems and leaves. Experiment with drawing the brush upwards or downwards, and explore the range of marks you can make!

Rosemary & Co travel brushes are handmade in England and include a reversible cap that protects their tips and also extends their handles to a typical brush length. We stock several styles of Rosemary travel brushes that complement each other beautifully. You can find more brushes on our brushes page.
