Da Vinci Short Handle Nova Slant

Series 1373

Photos

Reviews

Nova Synthetics differ from other golden synthetics in their enhanced ability to hold water and color. Many other golden synthetics are glass smooth, but Nova synthetics use golden synthetic filaments of three different diameters with tiny ridges along the fibers that slow down the flow of water or color off the brush. These filaments have been specially shaped and tapered to adapt to the qualities of synthetic rather than natural hair.

Nova Series 1373 Slant brushes allow you to hold the painting edge of the brush at a more comfortable angle for flat, horizontal strokes. They may be used for all media and feature nickel-plated, seamless brass ferrules that are resistant to rust.

Note — Brush sizes are not standardized. The length and width of a brush of a given shape and size varies considerably by manufacturer. Since fine art brushes are handmade, expect some variation even among brushes from a given manufacturer.

Comments about Da Vinci Brushes Da Vinci Short Handle Nova Brushes:

Of the synthetic "taklon" type brushes ... There are several brands available. After years of testing the different products these are arguably the best. There are many sizes and brush shapes to choose from. The liners and "long rounds" are especially nice. These are expensive, BUT, unless you beat them to death, they will last longer by far than some others. I have used fine liners for 5 years, and STILL get a perfect line! Da Vinci is perhaps the best brush company in the world. Certainly one of the largest and most diverse. This is a 5 star product.

These brushes seem to be holding their shape and they fit perfectly in my painting kit that I take with me when traveling to demos and onsite painting adventures.

Good for underpainting or media such as enamels which will wear out brushes quickly.
