The New York Central brush makers didn't just try to imitate the characteristics of natural hair they set out to create something superior and succeeded with Oasis!

A computer simulation determines the precise combination of filaments before each brush is assembled by hand. Over 30 types of synthetic hair are blended to accurately imitate natural hair. This attention to detail results in a soft, extremely absorbent brush that holds its shape well and has great snap. One of the first brushes designed using computer simulation for every single brush. This will outshine virtually all brushes! Each brush has the optimal combination of hair to maximize its performance. This yields a uniform brush response and color-holding ability. Oasis brushes are extremely thirsty and can hold a large amount of water and paint compared to other brushes. After working with these brushes, you will be amazed by how well they perform. Key Features: * Designed and optimized with advanced 3D imaging tech * Hair Type: Over 30 types of synthetic hair blended to accurately imitate natural hair * Absorbent synthetic filaments hold a large amount of liquid * Superior split-proof point * Designed to outperform natural hair * Vegan (no animal by-products) * Ergonomically shaped birch wood handle * High-quality anthracite colored ferrule * Hand-made by skilled artisans in Germany Perfect For: * Animal-friendly artists * Use with watercolor, gouache, ink, and acrylics * Painting fine details or bold washes of color * Controlled painting techniques that require a sharp edge * Professionals, art enthusiasts, and students Don't be alarmed if your Oasis brush is still wet after a day!
