Sable Brush Sets
he last few
years I have found myself working increasingly with sables. The sable brush allows
a more fluid stroke than does a bristle. And of course I use the sables for small
detail, and for blending. These superb red sables by Silver Brush are delightful to
use - I recommend them wholeheartedly. —John Howard Sanden
