WHY KYLE SELECTED THESE BRUSHES:
“Painting, to me, is an extremely passionate experience. I paint as much as I can, and hope that I can communicate with the viewer what I saw and how I felt each time that I pick up a brush.
As an artist I am always looking to push the boundaries of what is possible with painting, therefore it is important to me that the brushes I choose do not hold me back from achieving the effects I wish to go after for each painting. I find myself returning to Rosemary brushes because they are always well made and allow me to know what to expect from every stroke before putting it down. I find that having brushes that behave consistently is crucial to painting successful representational paintings.
The hog bristle large background and the ultimate bristle long flat brushes are used for the block in stage to cover large areas of the canvas quickly. The Ivory brushes are stiff enough to hold plenty of paint and also offer a lot of precision, therefore I am able to use it for almost any part of the painting. The synthetic rounds are great for detailed work and refining small shapes. Lastly the eclipse comber and master’s choice brushes are great for softening edges or reducing glare in shadow areas."
