Flats
Filbert
Angle
Dagger
Round
Foliage
Rake
Mop
Shader with a cure on one end.
Sue, I have watched literally hundreds of videos on how to paint for beginners, how to brush, stroke, how to paint roses, wildflowers, buildings, etc., but not a single one comes close to being as careful and as detailed as you are in this video teaching about the kinds of brushes and how to use each one. You are unquestionably the best instructor I have seen on this issue.
Furthermore , I like everything about your approach: Closeup so that we can actually see how you load your brush, how you hold, move, and direct your brush. There is no waste of time, no self-adulation.
I will be looking for other videos by you regardless of the claims of others about their talents. No good to me in my efforts to learn unless their teaching is effective. Your instructions are superior. Thank you.
Wow such kind words thank you
I have just starting painting at 74. I have watched three other videos this afternoon and found yours the most helpful. I like that you admit when something is not to your liking, showing how to fix it and tell us not to worry. I hope the person who wrote the negative comment has learned not to sweat the little things after the last year and a half we have had. It is so important to BE KIND. Our country needs to heal. Thank you.

Thank you so much
Thanks Nicholi but rudeness is just as important as kindness. Everything in the universe is always in balance.
@@reginaldforthright805 Rudenessis never important
Me as well @60
It's close to Christmas and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for all your comments. It was a pleasure to make this video for you all. I remember how it was when I started to paint and looked at all the brushes and thought Oh My.
May the new New bring you Joy, Peace and Good Health and keep on painting.
I am SO glad that you don't have music, bells & whistles!
Infinitely better & more concentrated straight & to the point like this.
For the first time I think I was actually able to fully ingest & retain the info due to lack of distraction.
Thanks!
To everyone that has watched. DO WHAT YOU LOVE AND LOVE WHAT YOU DO. Keep painting everyone things improve over time, you'll see
SUE YOU OR SO OUTSTANDING AN EXPLANING YOUR ARTWORK WITH BRUSHES AN I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS IN ANY WEBSITE . THANKS FOR YOUR DEMOS. IAM 55 years old and painted all my life. An i have learned so much FROM YOU.❤😊
Thank you so much. I went to art college in Uk over 30yrs ago and nobody showed us how to use brushes.
Gave up art and am now returning to it. Very good informative teaching. Thanks for sharing.
Sue - you are the BEST teacher I have come across on UA-cam hands down! Thank you for the time and effort you have put into teaching others how to paint!! I am so excited that I found you on here! :-)
You are most welcome
THANK YOU!!!!!!! Your video its exactly what I have been looking for. Brushes and strokes its the best teachings I have found so far.
Omygosh!!! I am in my 60's now and have owned and used all of these brushes improperly. I took oil painting lessons for over 25 years and never knew this. You are an excellent teacher as well. If there were awards for teaching videos I would put you in the first place. I haven't been excited to paint in a long time. Thank you. Oh... and do not listen to anyone with a negative comment. I painted on the wrap-around skirts that were popular in the 1980s. this would have saved me a lot of frustration and grief.
Thanks so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it
That's crazy, people tell me to take Art classes . I could, I just don't want to be told how to do something. LOL. I'll learn on my own. .😂❤
OMG!!! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE??
LOL!
I'VE HAD THE DONNA DEWBERRY ONE STROKE KIT BASICALLY, FOR YEARS. NOW I FINALLY KNOW HOW TO USE ALL THESE BRUSHES. I AM SO GRATEFUL, YOU TOTALLY INSPIRED ME TODAY!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
You are so welcome. I started out in One Stroke and am self taught. I went on the being a certifying instructor, but now I do my own thing
I just bought a large variety of brushes, and I'm new to all this. This is THE MOST informative video I've come across. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the kind words
I’m pushing 68 yrs, and just started braving the painting world. I am SO inspired watching this video. Thank you!
Sue, thank you for the time you’ve spent making these videos for people wanting to learn. I’ve spent a good bit of time struggling to make some simple shapes and you’ve helped exponentially in my painting journey
You are most welcome
Hi I am so enjoying your training videos, please do more painting and mixing and use of paint and how to use paint mediums to keep your paint wet etc, I am jsut starting out on my painting journey and find your acrylic painting tutorials massively educational, please, please make more videos..
Wow I've been watching a lot of tutorials about painting and none go into such technical details. Thank you so much for sharing your craft with us! It feels like I took a masterclass
Thanks for the kind words. I remember when I started I was like a fish out of water. That is why I did this video.
Sue, I truly appreciated this video, it answered my question on brushes. I am a self-taught artist. Thank you!!
glad you liked it
I’m new to painting, but I’m so glad I found you. Everyone explains things differently, just as we all learn differently, but I find your way of explaining brush strokes so, so helpful. Thank you!
Sue, you had explained way much better on how to do strokes than anyone else I’ve seen. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for this informative video. I'm 73 and just started painting. This video about the brushes is very helpful.
This is an excellent tutorial on brushes and how to use them. I’ve been painting for decades, and I learned something new today. I’m excited to try out these new techniques. Thank you.
I just want to thank everyone for all the positive remarks. You are all most welcome. I remember so well how afraid I was when I saw all the brushes and thought???? So enjoy and keep painting
Yes please keep making these videos! I’m a self taught artist and I LOVE the way you taught me how to use the brush and paint!
You are a great teacher. I am a beginner in acrylic painting (many years I used to paint watercolor, but I was a novice). After 35 years of teaching at a University, now I want to try on acrylic as my retirement activity. I like your video, since it gives me the basics about painting and the use of brush and color. I have seen many tutorials on UA-cam,. Your tutorial teachs me the fundamentals. I live in Boston, wish I was close to where you live in Canada, so that I take a face to face tutorial. Thank you.
Thanks. I am probably not going to use real brushes to draw flowers but I can now appreciate the time and effort put into these paintings.
Sue, you make things look very easy but it takes a lot of practice. Thank you for sharing and I am doing alot of practicing.
Just want to thank you all for all your comments
welcome
Hi Sue, thank you so much for your well demonstrated and explained paint brush types and techniques!! I love this video!
This video is 6 years ago and yet I find it very helpful among other tutorials that I have watched❤ thank you very much❤
I honestly love this video, I know absolutely NOTHING about painting, brushes, paint ANYTHING LOL and this has filled me with so many tips and knowledge, I just can’t thank you enough for how informative your video is, please PLEASE keep making them ❤️
Welcome
Every time I watch a video like this I learn something new. Pays to watch different ways of teaching and techniques. Great video.
Someone came on my video of fabric painting and called me a fraud. I am not a fraud. I am just showing you things I know. I have NEVER claimed I am better than the people who are very qualified at their art. I just thought I'd share what I knew.
Thanks for sharing, this was extremely informative. Please keep doing more, and don't be discouraged by internet trolls.
Please what is the name of the flower you painted in purple?
Sue I’m just beginning to paint so I hope you definitely do more videos. Unfortunately, there are mean people in this world that like to be hurtful but do not let them stop you from doing what you enjoy doing. Trust me I’m definitely appreciating all of your teachings it is so helpful
When someone is jealoused or can't do things what others are doing they definetly find simple definition like fraud n fake .. This video is very informative , i bought new speciality brushes and ur video is v helpful
Jealousy makes people say stupid unthought things. I thank you for your tutorials. I am a beginner and I appreciate all the videos available on UA-cam for guidance. The way you do thoroughly demonstrate your techniques has been beyond helpful. Thank you.
Very informative and super useful. Just what I needed for what brush is best for what technique and texture effect. The double loading to get the instant blend was an added bonus. Thank you!
I have just started painting and today I have watched three other videos so far and found yours the most helpful. I like the fact that you admit that something might not be quite the best, show how to fix it and tell us not to worry. This was obviously made before the pandemic. I hope that the person who wrote the negative comment now realizes that we can’t sweat the little things. Unfortunately after all we have been through people like this have not learned to BE KIND. Thank you so much.
welcome
This is great! Your an amazing teacher!!!! I really appreciate you for taking the time to do this! The best on UA-cam hands down!
Agree with the rest of their positive comments❤ your technics are extremely helpful. Thank you so much!🎉
I have watched many, many you tube videos on painting, BUT, this one on brushes will be life changing for my painting! I can not thank you enough for your teaching on brushes!! Thank You, thank you, thank you!!!!
Thank You...... So Much !!! I'm 67 yrs old.....I have been painting for yrs. I'm having my first showing this coming Nov. 2017 @ the TANNERY POND CENTER in North Creek , NY . Most of my pieces are on wood....mixed media. You have shown me how to ....basically do quickly, what I have been taking so much time to get the same look. Great Video, All I can say Again is Thank You ! Ron Shook
Ron Shook dad keep rocking all the best god bless u.and u r from??
I'm glad it helped
Hi Sue I just found your channel. I’m starting to paint and this is by far the best instruction video I’ve seen. Thanks and I hope you’re well.
This is the best tutorial I have seen very informative for beginners to how to use brushes properly.thank you very much to sharing your skills with us x
Norma here. Just came across this video and truly enjoyed watching and learning. I follow other painting tutorials and have learned something new from each one. Thank you for helping me understand how different brushes can be used to create petals and leaves. I wasn’t crazy about the last flower you did, but I still learned a new way. Thank you.
Thanks for your kind words. The last flower was to show shading and how to flip a petal or leaf.. Glad you enjoyed the video
Thank you so much, Sue. This is literally the most helpful video to beginner like me. I am sure others also find it quite helpful. Thank you so much for helping me learn so exponentially.
By far the most insightful videos ive watched
Hi Sue!!.. great to see you are sharing your knowledge!! I have learned some new skills as well after painting for 20yrs!!
Your videos are the most informative. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Love the tone and pace of your explaining -natural and well documented
Possibly the best tutorial I have ever seen - you are a wonderful teacher and it looks like magic - thank you so much
Thank you All so must for the comments.
A huge THANK YOU for this video. I really appreciate the fact that you discussed each brush, it's purpose, and demonstrated each one. Thanks so much!
How I wish I had discovered this video sooner! Thanks for this very instructive and well-presented piece.
Thank you so much Sue, I'm a non experienced painter and now I can create beautiful flowers - your video is so constructive on how to use different brushes, way to go, Thanks Again
Steeve
Just starting to try and paint. I love how you teach. Big, big thank you. I’ve been trying to do petals and leaves.
Wow just picked up this video on youtube looking to see I how can use my accumulated brushes, not being a painter of any form but looking to expand from paper crafting to jounrnaling and doing small canvases as a respite from my usual work, thank you
Thank you for your lovely lessons and NO music
Thank you so much for sharing so freely. I learned so much from this video. You are a great artist and teacher.
I'm halfway watching this video but paused for a while to say this is amazing... i do murals but this one's teaching me how to do it more easily, thanx a lot

Just found you and I must say, this is the best tutorial I have seen here on UA-cam. Hoping to find more on your channel. New Sub and Thanks so much.
A delightful variety of brushstrokes applicable to watercolor as well as acrylic. Thanks for sharing.
This really helped me understand the different brushes names, strokes, and possible uses, thank you.
I just started painting at 48 and so far have been "winging it" lol I had no idea you could load 2 colors on 1 brush at all! Thank you
Fantastic video. Your a natural born teacher! Thanks so much for sharing that. I learned a whole lot and I will definitley practice what you've just taught.
You are so kind

Wow, your video is fabulous. Now I feel like I can order the right brushes with knowledge you have given me. I actually think I'm really going to enjoy painting! Not only have you given information on the brushes, you have given excellent instruction on painting techniques. YOU ARE AWESOME!!
I am humbled.
Hi, I am only half way through the tutorial and had to stop to say how fantastic this is. I know that I will be coming back to this over and over again. Going to buy myself a good round brush. lol
I am 86 just started your lesson was so helpful thank u
Love your instructions, very clear and explained well!!
Dear Sue, Thank You for this WONDERFUL tutorial! I can hardly believe how easy you make it look to make petals and leaves appear like magic! You have really helped me, after my first year of painting to feel like I finally have a clue as to what I can accomplish with my brushes!
I love to share what I know
I have enjoyed this episode with the explaination of strokes and brushes, Good job. thank you for being on you tube for us beginners.
Amazing video. I will watch this over and over and never be bored. You did a simply awesome job. Yes, a long video but worth every minute.
I Enjoyed your video and learning how to use the different brushes . I learned a lot thank you.
I just came across this video/excellent lesson. It is loaded with wonderful Information!! Thank you so very much for making this video. Whether to learn as a beginner or as a refresher tutorial, this is priceless information. Your explanations are very thorough & your demonstrations for each brush are equally as thorough. You are a lovely teacher. Thanks again.
Really enjoyed watching your video. You explained and demonstrated all that I needed to learn about brushes. Thank you so much for showing everyone.
Truly enjoyed your video very informative,& easy to comprehend! Thank you for going in detail on what your doing as your doing it , I’ve noticed alot of Artist on UA-cam paint but don’t explain the process or techniques as there going.
Hi! You're only the second UA-camr I've found that talks about how different brushes can create different shapes. Absolute newbies will need such information. Thank you for putting this up. Don't pay any attention to the trolls.
You are very welcome
I remember being a newbie
To everyone who has watched this video I thank you. I am hearing it was hard to hear, sorry the mic is right on the camera. Again thanks for your comments. I know when I started to paint no one showed me about different brushes.
Check out my other videos as well. They might you.
wow thank you so much for sharing this with us I'm just starting painting and this makes my life so much easier please keep making more really appreciate em! New subbie :D You teach great too!
@@suegaitartist7166 Don't worry. I'm using my headphones, and hear everything very well. Thank you!
@@MirandaDolly i never found it hard to hear
You are amazing! Thank you so so much for this video! I will use it to practice. I like your voice very much! You sound super sweet :)
Please do more videos, you are brilliant!
I just realized i have one of your one stroke books ❤ . Roses of all kinds .
I am a begginer and I love this video so much. She explained it well and very detailed, Thank you and I will keep on whatching your videos... Keep it up.
Woah, these really are Master strokes indeed!!! And as some said, yes you're a natural born Teacher. Thank you a lot for your precious sharing, Sue. :)))))) Cheers from France. :)
Wow, i just watched this. Easy to see and hear everytging you are showing me. This is a fabulous video.. i like Talavera Mexican pottery and want to paint some things in that style. You helped me choose the type of brushes needed for the designs. Thank you so much!🎨
TOTALLY agree with Iris Wilder. Wow this has helped my childish attempts at painting so much. Mind, now I see how brushes can be used would someone please enter that data into my brushes as they don’t seem to realise they too have a purpose for their existence. 😂
I really loved this video. Learning about the different brushes was exactly what I was looking for, however, learning how to LOAD the brushes properly was an even BIGGER help! I had no problem hearing your video. It was great. Thank you!!
You are most welcome. It can be very overwhelming when you see all the different brushes and think "Now what do I pick"
Agreed. After looking at my notes, I’m going to start with a new flat brush, an angled brush, a round brush and a Foliage brush. I have these already but they are poor quality and didn’t use them properly so they aren’t in the best shape anymore. Really looking forward to trying them out! Thanks again!!
thanks
@@jillianagnew3799 Glad I could help
Your tutorial is very much useful I am practicing the brush strokes before I attempt any piece again
many are knowledgeable.. but very few can teach.. u are an amazing teacher.. thanku for doing this.. u do it with so much ease! ☺
Thanks for the kind words
Thanks so much! I have taken a few classes, but this free video was way more valuable to a beginner.
I am so glad that I helped. Paint away my friend
Great video! I learned so much! I am just getting into painting and I was experimenting today and I wish I had watched your video first. Thanks! You are so much fun to watch and it looks so beautiful.
The best lesson I saw in this kind of video You are right, the music has no importance ... Thank you so much (from France) 🌹
Glad you agree and seeing me would not help you either. LOL
I am new to painting, this is the best tutorial I have watched so far. You are amazing. Thank you.
you deserve a lot of appreciation.i love the way you move every brush.thanks for giving us a information about the brushes.LOVE FROM PAKISTAN...!
sugar candy yesss pakistannnnn same heree
I very much needed what you had to teach. I am a little afraid of my brushes. This gives me lots of techniques with which to use. I would love to attend one of your classes once this pandemic is over and the border to Canada is open again. I am in Ste. Agathe des Monts in the summer.
Glad you liked it. I don't teach anymore
Thank you so much ! I've been so frustrated not knowing what brushes to use or what to purchase . I am just beginning and this helped me so much . Your an awesome teacher ! God bless you M
I found this tutorial super educational….thank you 💐🎨🥰
