I got this for use in acrylic painting. Most of the painting I do with acrylics is on canvas, wood, or miniature figures. I got this brush for work on canvas and wood. It works well on these media. This good middle-tier brush is more than good enough for most studio work and educational settings. The product description is accurate. The brush arrived in two days and in good order. I got it in mid-January and have used it intermittently ever since. It still works well with no frizzing or hair loss. The brush still readily shapes into its rounded shape with a good point. The price compares favorably to similar brushes at Hobby Lobby or Michael’s. I would definitely get it again.

I do not like the handle on this brush. I has a terrible unfinished or cheap finish. I don’t understand why it is not varnished. The brush itself is nice and the synthetic hairs are tight, the tip is good and will hold a lot of water or pigment. But, I would not get this brush again due to the handle. Very disappointing.

I've been 3D printing for a few years and recently decided to try my hand at painting. I have an airbrush for the majority of tasks and picked this brush up for some detail work. I'm new to this, so take that for what it's worth. The brush is longer than I expected, but it feels comfortable in my hand and has a textured feel to it. It also has a little bit of thickness down towards the bristles, which help in the comfort of holding and working with it. I will probably only be using it with acrylics, so for me it was very easy to clean and didn't have any issues with bristles fraying or coming off. Will look for additional tips to complete a basic set for me. Very happy.

So, just to make an immediate clarification, the listing for the da Vinci 8730 brushes has a graphic for kolinsky sable watercolor brushes. While da Vinci does offer these, this graphic *should not* be on this ad. I've taken 1 star off of this review for that.The brush is just shy of 12" long, and the handle is traditional- wooden, with plain white ink imprint displaying the barcode, UPC, model 8730 series, College acrylics, brand, and the #6 info on it. The body features an ergonomic bulge towards the business-end of the brush but this is smaller than on the Forte series, and this is really comfortable to hold for long stretches at a time compared to your traditional straight brush handles. The metal ferrule is properly clamped, and the nylon hairs are properly aligned. They are two-toned, which is a nice thought but ultimately will be covered in paint soon enough.Although I don't personally like the matte paint feeling on the handle, I understand this will actually help folks who need a better grip on their brushes compared to a glossy finish. For those of you who don't like the feeling either, a gentle sanding will go a long way to help you customize your experience.The bristles being nylon don't need any extra commentary: if you've worked with oils/acrylics before, you know how to load/clean the bristles, and these will take a beating in solvents with ease.Overall, you can definitely expect your da Vinci brushes to last you at least a decade if not longer. My last set is still in use from 20 years ago. The brand is quality, and it's worth getting this series in particular. The College series is for intermediate to advanced artists and the Forte series is for beginners to intermediate. You will have increased manual dexterity when you handle the College series vs the Forte.

This brush is NOT a #12. I ordered at 12. It's marked a 12, but it's more like a #4 and it's more like a flat than a bright.
