What a brush. This has been our best selling brush for many years. Artists are amazed at how well this brush does against the more expensive sable alternative.

ABOUT

NEEF taklon brushes were developed through collaboration between Neef and Robert Wade over 25 years ago. They are our best selling brushes and are suitable for most techniques including watercolour, gouache, inks, acrylics, oils etc. They have very strong filaments which give great snap and colour carrying capacity. They also offer a great point, spring and precise control particularly when brush marks are not required in paint film. They do not carry as much colour as sable / squirrel but are a fraction of the price. Our taklon range caters to all types of artist with many shapes and sizes available.

ROBERT A.WADE TAKLON SHORT HANDLE RANGE

Robert A Wade is an Australian watercolour artist who has gained International acclaim. He has exhibited with most of the major Watercolour Societies in the World and won important awards in many countries. He conducts Workshops regularly, inspiring his students with enthusiasm and mastery of the watercolour medium. He lectures on the heritage of Australian watercolour to many art societies around the world, earning himself the title of "Australia's Unofficial Ambassador of Watercolour".

Until 25 years ago all quality brushes were made from animal hair. That is until the advent of synthetically made hair. The first taklons brought onto the market were not great but through a collaboration between Neef and Robert Wade they were greatly improved. The Robert Wade range is still quite amazing in their performance considering the price of natural hair brushes. The following Neef brush series are used and recommended by world famous artist and demonstrator, Robert Wade. 970 round point, 980 long flat and the 990 liner.

These brushes are the best I've found for painting fine detail on model soldiers using Acrylic paints.
They retain their points much longer than other brands I've used .highly recommended .

The brushes are used to paint fine detail on 28mm war games miniatures , generally Acrylic paints tend to wear the fine points
off brushes fairly quickly ,this brand tends to wear much better, retaining the fine point longer .

The Robert Wade Neef taklon range of brushes are absolutely brilliant, I've been using these as an alternative to sable for the past few years, they hold a good amount of water and retain a good point.
The are also very hard wearing and at a very good price, although I live in the UK I buy all my watercolur brushes from Senior Art Supplies.

I've been using these brushes for the past couple of years, I much prefer these to sable brushes and at a fraction of the price, fantastic.

I love these Robert Wade brushes for my watercolour work... they always spring back into shape, and they hold just enough water for my requirements. I paint every day, and these brushes last a very long time even though they do get a hammering! Best of all is the extremely reasonable price, which means I can spend a little more on finer quality paints.
