Textura brushes are one of two options we stock, for oil and acrylic painters. Noted for their firmness of synthetic bristle, they are ideal for use with heavy media where more sculptural applications of paint is required. These brushes are highly resistant to wear and are available as rounds, flats and filberts.
Designed for those who like to apply thick structural brush strokes they are best employed with oils and heavy-bodied acrylic paints. Textura brushes are an excellent alternative to traditional hog brushes and are easier to maintain too. Although intended for bold mark making the fine brushes in the range are also very good for applying detail and delicate marks.
The synthetic bristles are firm providing a high degree of control but also have a good spring that snaps back to a clean edge or point for lighter mark
“Brilliant shop! Wonderful, prompt and attentive service and an excellent array of products (particularly given the size of the space). I usually order online and collect in store (another excellent service) to save the risk of parking my bike outside but always enjoy a wander when I’m in town. Highly recommended!”

“I ordered 3 pads of watercolour paper and when it arrived I was amazed at the way it was packed. Bubble wrap, cardboard wrap then brown paper. As a result the paper arrived in perfect condition. Well done.”

“So nice to have a shop not in a mall or a big impersonal space with knowledgeable helpful staff-full of all the art/craft supplies one could possibly want.”
– Halima
“I’ve only found this wonderful shop recently. I have been coming into this shop regularly since as I’m doing a few craft projects at the moment. The staff are absolutely lovely and have helped me anytime I needed assistance — even with recommendations!”
– Chantelle
“The staff were very helpful and patient and helped me get everything I needed to start traditional inking/inkwash art, which is not that common (but they had the supplies regardless). Coming from a digital background, I had very little idea about what I needed but they were very patient and kind in helping me pick out each piece of equipment.”
