The round brush is a good general purpose brush. You should choose the brush for the type of work or strokes you want to create. The shape of the hair determines the type of strokes it can create. If you're a beginner, or have limited budget, I recommend you to start with the versatile round brush. Other types of brushes not shown are rigger, fan, angled, filbert, etc.

The last brush in the photo above is the mop brush, which is a larger variation of the round brush but uses (mostly) squirrel hair to increase its water holding capacity. Even for flat brushes, there are the normal flat and flat wash (can hold more water). Next common brush is probably the flat brushwhich can cover a larger area but the strokes are rectangular in shape, unless you paint on its edge.

It's a brush that can produce thin and thick strokes. Without confusing you too much on the variety, the most common and versatile brush is the round brush. These are some brushes that I have, from top to bottom They can differ in the shape of the brush, the type of hair used, the body and of course the brand. There are many different types of watercolour brushes. So today, I'm going to talk more about watercolour brushes that I think are good for beginner artists. During a recent Q&A session on my Instagram page, a follower asked for brush suggestions.
