The 9875 Specialty Stippler is an oval shaped Stippler brush that creates an open, airy pattern allowing previous colors to show through as you build up layers. The Stippler is an texturing brush. Applicable for fur, foliage, soft backgrounds, etc. Use a dry brush, loading just the tips. Pounce on your palette to evenly distribute paint and remove excess before moving to your surface. Dry wipe your brush between color changes or dry thoroughly to remove excess moisture. Turn the brush as you work to fit the area and to create a more random pattern. Available in 4 size variations.
