Review on 🖌️ Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Brush Round Long Handle Size 1 - Perfect for Precise Oil Painting Techniques! by Jessica Lewis

Based on the WN brand I expected a good or at least passable brush based on my past experience. Indeed, at first it works well and looks sharp, and the grip is comfortable to hold. Unfortunately, it falls apart after a few weeks of use. The bristles do not become smooth and crumble. If you condition it with oil (safflower, flaxseed, walnut) it will appear normal for about a use or two and then it will be awful again. This is MUCH WORSE than the cheap brushes you buy at a craft store. This happened to 2 of the 3 flat brushes I bought.
