Review on Discover The Ultimate Brush Set: 25 Artlicious Brushes For All Your Painting Needs by Anthony Record

As an artist, I own lots and lots of brushes, hundreds of them, including some sable and squirrel hair brushes that cost hundreds of dollars a piece. But some times I need a quick, inexpensive, single-use, disposable brush that I know I can just wreck on a single use. These serve that purpose. I use them to brush off eraser crumbs on a pencil drawing, or sweeping up charcoal dust from my easel's bottom ridge. I would never use these to apply paint, ink, water, or graphite dust to any surface in any medium. They are too flimsy and the bristles quickly come loose and lose their shape. But for disposable, single use brushes, especially when I am painting "plein air," they are some times useful. I would never bother cleaning them. They would just fall apart if I attempted to clean them, even just in water. I use them one-time-only on some dirty task, and toss them away like chopsticks, Q-tips, or plastic picnic spoons.
