What do you love about Borciani e Bonazzi brushes?
I have always used notebooks, ever since I was a student and then, over time, for any of the many professional roles I have covered.
They're a work tool that I love, especially now that I dedicate myself to botanical painting.
They are a reservoir of ideas and thoughts, a 'creative place' where a little game, a little scientific rigor are concentrated and without realizing it, the exercise of the technique is practiced.
I found in the Masterpiece brushes series 107 by Borciani e Bonazzi my ideal partners thanks to their very high quality.
They are versatile and reliable, their long and capacious Kolinsky marten bristles, with a very pointed shape, allow me to move from my playful digressions, to absolutely rigorous executions.
A joy for the artists who must combine these two qualities in their work
