From this synthetic hair, an ideal tool is achieved that provides a good brushstroke on canvas. This Takatsu fiber maintains a level of toughness, yet unusual softness for work in oil painting and acrylics.

This imitation of the natural bristle has been one of the latest fashions in synthetics. The fiber's thickness is similar enough and ample enough to a natural bristle to provide a brushstroke that is both soft yet tough.

For Antonio Lopez, realism replaces beauty. There is no doubt the realism Antonio achieves is because of his ability, his clinical eye, and his wisdom as a painter. However reliability on the brushes he uses also contributes to his spectacular work, specifically the RUSTICO series made of Mongoose hair and combining different sizes. Includes Rustico Round Pointed Brushes sizes 1, 8 and 14.

This new series is super stiff yet still extremely responsive. Unlike natural hog bristle, Catalyst has real integrity in water. Natural bristle can be rendered useless when it is water-soaked.

The true advance in Catalyst is the Polytip feature. For the first time, the tip of each individual hair has been split to replicate the natural flags on the finest natural bristle. By giving each individual hair 2 to 3 distinct tips, Catalyst is able to hold a higher volume of paint while providing a smoother application.

Designed for use with medium to heavy-bodied acrylics and oil paints, Catalyst pushes even heavy gel mediums with assurance.
