Welcome to #FridayFinds, where each week, I discover unique art materials and share their exceptional qualities through a blog and video presentation. Today's featured find is the revolutionary portable watercolor brush.

Portable Paintbrush

Now, you might be thinking, "Aren't all brushes portable?" While that's technically correct, traditional brushes can be delicate and susceptible to damage when moved around, rendering them less effective. However, someone has ingeniously crafted a solution - the incredible and convenient portable watercolor brush.

Made to Suit

This remarkable brush comes in a variety of sizes (4, 6, 8...) and styles (flat, round), catering to your specific artistic needs. What sets it apart is its built-in water reservoir within the brush handle. With this ingenious feature, you no longer need to carry a separate water container to moisten your brush or dilute your paint.

Fill with Water

Simply fill the barrel of the brush handle with water (as demonstrated in the accompanying video), and you're ready to dive into your creative journey without delay. Isn't it truly astonishing?
