Hake Brush 1″

Hake brushes, traditionally made with soft goat hair bristles, are primarily used for applying large, even washes in watercolor painting. They are also versatile enough to be used dry for techniques like smoothing washes, softening marks, and creating soft edges. These Hake Brushes have flat wooden handles and are used in watercolour painting. The brush is typically synthetic, squirrel, goat, ox or bristle. These brushes hold a lot of water so they’re perfect for wetting the surface, doing a large wash, or for picking up excess paint.
