Washes on the go. The Art Spectrum Travel Brush Size 8 is the largest of our three travel sizes, with high quality synthetic hair, a nickel plated brass ferrule and a silver metal case to keep it safe in transit.

The Size 8 is the one for skies, hills and big, juicy washes in a sketchbook. Pair it with a Size 4 for detail and you can paint almost anything you see on a trip.

★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Wet your sky first. On location, brush clean water over the sky area with the Size 8, then drop in colour and let it spread. You get soft clouds in seconds, which matters when the light is changing and the coffee is getting cold.

Art Spectrum made this brush for painting in nature or while travelling. The silver metal tube protects the hair, and its breather hole allows ventilation when the cap is on, so the brush can dry without being left out.

Even at Size 8 you get Art Spectrum's promise of an exact tip and excellent shape retention, so one brush covers the sky and still finishes the edge of a roofline.

Why We Love the Size 8 Travel Brush

  • Holds a wash. Good liquid holding capacity for skies and backgrounds.
  • Still points. An exact tip for edges and lines.
  • Tough case. Metal tube protection for bags and pockets.
  • Easy gift. A neat present for any painter who travels.

How We Use It

Dip, load, and lay in your big shapes first. Rinse between colours, reshape the tip and cap it when you pack up.

Team it with the Art Spectrum Watercolour 12 Pan Set and a watercolour paper pad for a light travel kit. Explore all our watercolour brushes.
