In this video I walk through my progression with watercolour brushes—what I started with, what I upgraded to, and what I think actually matters when you’re just getting into watercolour. I’m not trying to overwhelm you with a giant list. Instead, I break things into a simple tier system so you can build a brush setup that matches where you’re at right now, and then expand later as you paint more and figure out what you like. I rank my “Tier 1” essentials first—the brushes I think are genuinely worth having from day one—then I move into Tier 2 brushes that are helpful once you start painting more often, and Tier 3 options that are totally optional depending on your style. I also throw in a bonus travel set tier for anyone who wants a small kit that still covers the basics. The main takeaway is that you don’t need a ton of brushes to get good results—you need a few reliable shapes/sizes and the confidence to use them consistently.
