Imagine eliminating the various problems associated with the current modern brush. A brush that provides better control, convenience, balance, and function. One that is so unique that its introduction… Stiffness Watercolors Acrylics Oils A momentous change to brush design in 300 years! Imagine eliminating the various problems associated with the current modern brush. A brush that provides better control, convenience, balance, and function. One that is so unique that its introduction represents a new birth of superior painting brushes. Nuovo Long Handle Professional Brushes have three patented changes that make them feel lighter, not front heavy, so holding at their farthest end will be comfortable, allowing for a controlled stroke and smooth transitioning long stroke. The handles do not taper, and the diameter of the handle is consistent throughout, which makes the most comfortable area to hold the brush more towards the back. These patented changes apply to the standard 300mm brush handle and the handle extensions, making them 400mm long. The exclusively patented brush ferrules have both side support and a domed cut-out so that the brushes with long hair put the force of your stroke at the tip. The bristles will hold more paint and ensure no bristle hairs will splay. A little past the center of the handle is the fulcrum balance point. The Nuovo brush is balanced, so you can easily hold it with one finger. Painting at or just past the fulcrum point feels natural, allowing for perfect control of the brush with or without the handle extension. Holding the handle at the rear allows for superb control. Finally, the standard brush and the handle extension feature a magnetic end, which can be attached to any easel or surface by attaching our metal mounting discs (available separately), which are perfect for hanging and storing brushes on your easel between uses. Another benefit of hanging your brushes when not in use is it forces the paint and solvent towards the front of the bristles. Any excess will gather at the tip, and you can quickly wipe it away. Now your brushes will always be in the ready position! Key Features:* 5 sizes (click the paper icon for more details)* Long filbert natural hog bristle hairs* They hold more color than any other brush* Maximum controlled strokes without splaying* Flattened, non-staining, non-rusting ferrule* Patented side supports plus domed cut-out to retain brush shape* Balanced non-tapered handle* Brushes are light and comfortable to handle at their end* Less strain on your wrist, zero fatigue, more working time* Each handle is 13 inches long with a magnetic end* Removable 3-inch counterweight magnetic extensions sold separately* Total 16-inch handle when using counterweight magnetic extension* Brushes can attach with metal mounting disks* Self-adhesive metal alloy medallions (5 Pack, sold separately) * Perfect For:* Portrait artists see subject matter better* Professional oil painters* Muralists and plein aire* Easel painters* Hanging to the underside of the easel (magnetic ends, medallions)* Attaching to a wall or any flat surface (magnetic ends, medallions)* Precise painting, blending, and expressive movement* Artists wanting the best experience* Working at an easel with controlled, even strokes* Superior control* Long smooth transitional strokes and line control* Ultimate tools of the trade for any oil color painter!* Limited storage space* No-hassle, everyday studio use Why Nuovo Brushes - Multiple Patents, Tremendous Control! * The breakthrough in brush design in 300 years* Longer hair holds more color than any other brush today* Greater precision and defined points* Tremendous controlled lines and long smooth transitional strokes* Held from their farthest end comfortably* Better weight distribution, zero hand fatigue* Maximum controlled strokes without splaying* Non rusting, non-staining ferrule Jerry's Exclusive - Best Seller! Bristles hold more color than ANY other brush, plus greater precision with ZERO hand fatigue! A brush that is so unique that its introduction represents a new birth of superior painting brushes! The current modern easel brush has a long 12-inch tapered handle and a seamless, flattened ferrule that allows artists to stand away from the easel. This design has remained unchanged for 300 years because it was the universally accepted way to make a brush. However, this design has several problems. The first problem is balance. A balanced brush experience is when a brush is gripped a few inches from the ferrule, defeating the purpose of an easel brush. Instead of finding yourself taking advantage of the handle length, you find yourself holding the handle near the ferrule, where it is comfortable and at its widest diameter. When clasping at the tip of the handle, the brush tends to flop, which leads to loss of control, plus the squeezing causes hand fatigue.* Chelsea Nuovo brushes have a balanced feel even when held from their farthest end. They have better weight distribution and zero hand fatigue. The second problem is the flat metal ferrule, which holds the bristle hair. Most brush shapes we used today have a flattened ferrule, with which the force of your stroke causes an outward pushing of the brush hairs. This push can make them less supple and often takes the paint off the canvas when painting. Brights get stiff as dried paint builds up where the hair and ferrule meet. Short bright brushes need constant cleaning, and full-size flats encourage shorter strokes as you paint. With longer hair brushes, such as extra-long filberts, stroke control is an issue, and the brush head cannot hold much color. If you paint with any long hair brush, from flats to filberts, the horizontal force across the entire ferrule causes hair to splay, leading to distorted shapes and loss of control.* Chelsea Nuovo brushes have a patented brush ferrule with side support and domed cut-out so that the force of your stroke is at the tip. The bristles will hold more paint and keep their shape. The third problem is well known to any artist using multiple brushes. You have to deal with the issue of brush storage when switching between them. Color transference between the brush heads can happen if you hold them in your hand. Putting them down on a flat surface can get paint not only on the handles but the surface, and the brush heads can touch, rendering them useless. Some artists use a brush vase to stand the brushes up, but ultimately some will contact. * Chelsea Nuovo brush handles feature a magnetic end, which can be attached to any easel or surface using the metal mounting discs. Perfect for hanging and storing brushes between uses. See More
