Pretty enough to leave out on the desk and good enough to paint with every day. Five Dynasty Water Lily brushes with shimmering coral handles and a soft, springy synthetic fibre that drinks up colour and lets it go slowly, presented in a lacquered wooden box. A gorgeous gift for watercolour painters and journal makers, new to Art Shed this Christmas.

What Makes Water Lily Special

Dynasty designed Water Lily for watercolour and ink. The synthetic fibre blend has a full belly with a soft spring and a crisp point, so it carries a generous load of colour and releases it at a steady, controllable rate. That means longer strokes, smoother washes and fewer trips back to the palette.

It is also cruelty free, so it is a lovely choice for painters who prefer not to use natural hair.

Why Artists Love Dynasty Brushes

Dynasty is the brush brand of FM Brush Co. in New York, a specialist brush maker whose ranges are used by fine artists, decorative painters and teachers. They are known for clever synthetic fibres that behave like natural hair, and for brushes that keep their shape for years.

These wooden boxes are something special for Christmas. Five brushes from one Dynasty range, presented in a lacquered wooden box with a brass clasp that keeps them safe on the shelf and in the studio long after the wrapping paper is gone.

Getting the Most Out of Your Water Lily Brushes

Use the larger shapes for washes and wet in wet, and the finer shapes for detail, line and lettering once the paper is dry.

Rinse in cool water and a little mild soap, reshape and dry flat. Keep them in the wooden box so the tips stay perfect.
