As most know, Mike Meyer, is the world wide educator of hand lettering. we thought it would be logical to introduce a series of brushes that he could introduce to all his students in his extensive travels. We had been working on a series of lettering quills that would work well for both the professional and the beginner. We decided on a synthetic sable hair that is the closest thing without the steep price. The synthetic sable is unusual in the fact that it absorbs paint like natural hair and flows out of the brush in a controlled manner. This brush can be used with enamel, urethane, and water based paint. We hope that you find this brush to be as versatile as its intended origin.
