Mont Marte Goat Hair Brush, 50mm, Natural Bristles, Wide Flat Brush for Washes, Blending & Background Work

50mm brush width; natural goat hair bristles for softness and absorbency; flat wide head for seamless washes; comfortable wooden handle for precise control; durable build that holds shape; suitable for multiple mediums (watercolor, gouache, ink).

Works well with watercolors, gouache, and ink, and can be used for varnishing with water-based finishes. The goat hair bristles help smooth, even washes.

Rinse after use with lukewarm water, gently reshape bristles, avoid soaking for long periods, dry bristles downward to keep shape, and store with bristles aligned to prevent warping.

Load a moderate amount of paint, then apply long, even strokes from edge to edge, using light pressure to build smooth gradients. Work from the top down when painting skies or backgrounds to prevent streaks.

The brush features a comfortable wooden handle designed for balance and precise control, making it pleasant for extended painting sessions.

Best for medium to large washes and broad coverage; great for background work, and it’s also capable of soft blending across larger surfaces.

Natural goat hair offers a softer, highly absorbent feel with smooth pickup and release, giving gentle, even washes. Synthetic bristles can be stiffer and may behave differently with certain paints; goat hair is favored for watercolor and gouache blending.

Other sizes give you more control: a smaller 25mm option for detail and narrow areas, and a 60mm option for even broader washes.

Yes, it’s suitable for light varnishing and finishing work where you want a smooth, even layer without visible brush strokes.

After cleaning and drying, reshape the bristles and store in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the brush bristles aligned to prevent misshaping.

Natural hair brushes may trigger allergies in some people. If you’re sensitive to animal fibers, handle carefully and wash hands after use. Keep brushes out of reach of very young children.
