Winsor & NewtonGaleria Round Short Handle Brush, Size 3, Silver

I've been oil painting for close to 20 years and have quite a few galeria brushes. Most of mine are from when I started and have lasted nearly 20 years and are still as great as when I began. They are my go to brushes, as their elegance flows on a canvas like silk. They do things my other brushes just cannot hope to do and if they ever made a fan brush I'd buy it. After 20 years, none of them have broken, their brisles are all great, and the handles aren't flaking the finish that badly. I have high expectations for this brush, and hope to buy more Galeria brushes in the future.

Excellent quality and value for the money . Winston Newton’s brushes never fail.

This is a nice brush. I ordered a #10 bright. When I got it I opened wit and the brush is tiny! I hate when this happens because not all brushes are the same when it comes to measurement. The quality of the brush is very well made and I will reorder but maybe a size 40???? Would still recommend, just watch the size

The point of the brush is very blunt.

Good stuff.

This review is for the Galeria size 0 brush. While my Winsor & Newton series 7 (MUCH better brushes) all have super sharp, pointy tips, this brush's tip isn't quite so sharp. The tip balloons out a bit more than others when paint is added. This brush is good for base coating small minis and doing the dirty work (washes, metallics) but the mediocre sharpness of the tip makes it hard to paint lines and tiny details. You'll need to use a different brush for that. Also, after washing the brush it is more difficult to reshape into a sharp point than other brushes. 4 stars.

The first one arrived broken, so I returned it. The second one, the bristles were spread. Unusable for detail work. Since this is a size 0 paint brush, not going to work.

Winsor & Newton have regularly produced the most reliable artist's materials; but the GALERIA line of brushes perform so well you don't even have to think about them. Just DO it.

MAGNIFIC ¡¡¡

I use this a lot for detail and it’s the perfect brush for hairs and thin stems etc

This is a brush that when I first got it I thought was too soft to lift watercolour paint, but it is actually perfect! It is now my favourite brush for adding details and lifting colour to clean edges and create faded lines or areas. I use it all the time and would definitely recommend it.

I paint with acrylic and this brush is awesome #6. Holds and spreads paint very well with clean strokes. I’m now hooked on the brand. Couldn’t be happier.

Good fine brush
