IL DOPPIO TRAVEL BRUSH #2 is a revolutionary dual-ended travel brush, designed for artists who demand versatility, precision, and practicality, whether they’re sketching on the go or painting en plein air. With two distinct brush tips and two resealable capsules, it’s the perfect companion for urban sketchers, watercolorists, and artists who work outside the studio.
Crafted by Borciani e Bonazzi, the IL DOPPIO #2 features two innovative, patented synthetic fibers with exceptional performance.
Sword Brush (Hidro® Synthetic Fiber, Size 4)
- High Absorbency & Softness: This brush provides excellent water retention and smooth flow, ideal for precise and controlled strokes.
- Slow, Gradual Water Release: It releases water evenly for smooth transitions in your painting.
- Versatile Use: The sword-shaped tip allows for thin, detailed lines typical of urban sketching, such as building outlines, electrical wires, and architectural features. With a bit more pressure, it can also cover small to medium color areas, perfect for carnets de voyage or A5-sized sketches.
Flat Brush (Synthetic Kolinsky Sable MKS®, Size 6)
- Superior Performance: The synthetic Kolinsky sable fiber mimics natural Kolinsky hair, offering excellent resilience and precision.
- Compact & Controlled: This brush holds its shape beautifully, giving you clean, defined strokes.
- Perfect for Urban Textures: Its flat tip excels at rendering architectural details like brickwork, roof tiles, and intricate patterns. It offers precise control to create depth, texture, and dimension in your cityscapes, while its versatile pressure response lets you play with color intensity and tone.
- Ideal for Hatching & Watercolor Pencils: The flat brush is perfect for hatchwork, detailing, and blending strokes made with watercolor pencils or creating backgrounds.
