Artis Opus - Series S - Size 1 Brush

If you could only own one brush, the Size 1 is the strongest shout in the Series S range — fine enough for most detail work, with enough body to basecoat a squad without the tip wilting halfway through. It's the brush most painters end up reaching for by default.

Why it's good

• Points sharply enough for detail, holds enough paint for basecoating
• A generous reservoir means fewer trips back to the palette
• Handmade in England from the highest grade of Kolinsky sable

Basecoating, layering, tidying up detail — the Size 1 handles most of a painting session solo, which is exactly why it's usually the first one to wear out.
