Last weekend I was introduced the the move beautiful squirrel hair, round headed Leonard watercolour brush. It held water amazingly and always kept a very clean point. One can paint the smallest detail with the large 14 brush. They are said to be made with the finest Rockcliffe Park squirrel hair ( hee hee). Not sure what squirrels have had recent hair cuts but I am sure no squirrels were harmed in the making of these brushes (as much as your tulips might desire). Take a look at their website. Download the catalogue and take a look at page 10. The attention to detail with the wash mop quill is duely noted while holding and painting with it. The website sadly has no links to retailers outside France. I guess one will simply have to fly there to pick up a few and enjoy a couple of long relaxing bistro visits at Verre Volant and L'Ami Jean.
