The concept of a paintbrush makes less sense when you picture it without either synthetic, hogs' or horses' hair. Of course, you don't need bristles to apply pigment to a canvas and these Catalyst Blades help to demonstrate this.
With some behaving perhaps more like palette knives, these polymer artistic implements sport a variety of different edges that range from flat and angled to combed and serrated. These tools enable the painter to produce some very interesting textures on his page with strokes of patterned lines and the like.
Made by the Princeton Artist Brush Company, the collection of Catalyst Blades and wedges increases the means of visual expression for creatives who are working within a more contemporary style.
