Lettering Brushes - Quill/Writer
Natural Quill
Synthetic Quill
Double and Triple Quills
Badger Quill

A quill brush is the perfect tool for block lettering. It is made with a fiber, traditionally squirrel hair, that absorbs enough color so that letters can be completed with a single stroke. Use a squirrel quill with water based paints and a badger quill with oil based paints. Double and triple quills are for larger and fuller lettering styles.
