Brushes – I have listed the brushes I feel comfortable using but you should feel free to substitute according to your preference.
Please note, large surfaces are painted with a large flat brush of your choosing. Smaller areas are painted with a size flat brush that is comfortable for you. The same holds true for any round brush used. The curved flat brushes were used for floating and I used the smaller size for smaller areas, middle size for larger areas and the large size for the largest areas. I use both Crescent brushes and domed brushes for the dry brushing and used a size that was appropriate to the area being brushed. I have listed the brushes that I used.
