MASTER BRUSH SET GARY JENKINS PIGMENT POWER

MASTER BRUSH SET GARY JENKINS PIGMENT POWER

The Master Brush Set contains 11 Gary Jenkins Pigment Power Brushes in a professional black case. With regard to brushes, consider the brush as a tool; if a brush is not properly constructed and is not made of superior materials, it can not possibly be used for proper application of paint. Your brushes must work with you, not against you. They are one of your most important tools. The brushes for the Jenkins Technique should come to very sharp chisels or points. The chiseled ends help to achieve the crisp edges, such as those found on flowers and leaves. When painting the Jenkins Style, bristle brushes are used only to apply the acrylic background. The Jenkins synthetic brushes are heat treated in an oven for a specific amount of time. This extra, special step in the manufacturing process is done to help the brushes keep their shape over their lifetime. A blend of different hair diameters is used to optimize the performance. The synthetic brushes are just a little bit soft and have a spring to them. If brushes are too soft, they will get limp when oil paint and medium are added to them. If a brush is too stiff, it will scratch across the surface and actually pull the oil paint off.
