Mont Marte Brush Sets

Well-priced sets covering acrylic, watercolour and oil painting. A simple way to build a working kit without overthinking every brush.

  • Gallery Series - versatile sets across multiple mediums
  • Signature Series - solid performance with wallet sets and larger kits
  • Discovery Series - good value starting point for beginners
  • Detailer Collection - fine detail and liner brushes
  • Specialty sets - gesso, stencil and technical brushes

Which art brushes do you actually need?

This depends on how you paint, but here's a practical starting point:

  • Acrylic painting - flats and rounds for most work, plus a larger flat for backgrounds
  • Watercolour painting - a mop or large round for washes, a medium round for general use, a small round for detail
  • Oil painting - hog bristle brushes for structure, softer brushes for blending
  • Detail work - liner or rigger brushes for fine lines

If you are unsure, a brush set is the easiest place to start.

Don't forget your paint

Brushes and paint go together. If you are replacing one, it usually makes sense to check the other.

Shop acrylic paint or browse watercolour while EOFYS is on.

Frequently Asked Questions

What art brush brands are on sale?

Neef Red Series individual brushes and Mont Marte brush sets are included in the EOFYS brush sale.

What are the best brushes for acrylic painting?

Flat and round synthetic brushes are the most commonly used for acrylic paint. Larger flats are useful for coverage, while smaller rounds handle detail work.

What brushes should I use for watercolour?

Watercolour works best with soft brushes that hold water well. Mop brushes and round brushes are the most useful starting point.

What is the difference between taklon and hog bristle brushes?

Taklon is a synthetic fibre that is soft, flexible and works across acrylic, watercolour and gouache. Hog bristle is stiffer and better suited to oil painting and heavy-body acrylic where you want visible brush marks.

Are brush sets or individual brushes better?

Brush sets are a good starting point if you are building a kit. Individual brushes are better if you know exactly which shapes and sizes you use.

How do I clean and care for art brushes?

Clean brushes thoroughly after use. Acrylic paint dries hard and can damage bristles if left. Do not leave brushes sitting in water. Store them flat or upright once dry. Using a brush cleaner can extend their life.

Does Art Shed ship brushes Australia-wide?

Yes. Orders ship from Moorabbin to all states and territories across Australia.
