About Equinox™

KINGART® set out to create and develop the finest quality synthetic version of Squirrel to outperform the natural version.  These deluxe watercolor brushes feature a specially designed combination of synthetic Kazan squirrel hair and a black synthetic hair blend. This combination holds huge amounts of color and releases it with perfect control. The soft hair blend allows for delicate techniques like glazing and painting multiple layers, yet is firm enough due to the synthetic blend where lifting color is easy with a light and gentle scrub of the brush. 

Equinox™ are superb quality brushes manufactured of a mix of triple width black synthetic fibers & synthetic Kazan Squirrel hair.   The synthetic mix filament holds a huge amount of color and releases it with perfect control for the watercolorist, silk painter, and artists working with inks, dyes, acrylics, or gouache. Consistent water release and pigment flow like silk.  Soft blend allows multiple layer glazing without disturbing previous colors, yet it's firm enough to lift color with a gentle scrub.

Featuring the latest synthetic fiber technology, Equinox’s multiple-diameter filaments are configured to replicate the smooth feel of natural Squirrel, with enhanced snap and resilient strength. Experts in natural hair have been incredulous that the Equinox™ brush hair is actually synthetic.

We are proud to offer Equinox™ watercolor brushes, handmade made with the finest quality materials including premium grade nickel-plated ferrules, rich wood stain handles, or aquatinted grey clear beveled edge handles depending on the series number.  Equinox™ Brushes are perfect for artists that work with inks, gouaches, silk painting, acrylics, watercolors, and dyes.

    Additional Details:

    • The Equinox™ watercolor brushes are made of synthetic squirrel filaments configured to replicate the smooth feel of natural squirrel hair with enhanced snap and resilient strength, at a fraction of the cost. Best for watercolor painting
    • The synthetic squirrel watercolor brush is softest & thirstiest synthetic paint brush. Holding as much water as natural squirrel hair, it's great at delivering oceans of color and allowing the artist to paint expressively with control
    • Round artist brushes make this set versatile and popular among artists, while the beautiful sea glass handle of the aqua handle brush is the signature of the line
    • This series of synthetic squirrel brushes are created to perform as well as the natural version in terms of user experience & durability, equating to more savings for the artist
    • Exclusive artisanal process, using the best materials, and the finishing of the expert hands of three generations of brush makers
    • KINGART® premium artist brushes are always handcrafted 
    • Handcrafted products are green. Work done by hand takes less energy than a mass production assembly line, which makes it more environmentally sustainable.
    • KINGART® premium brush sets come with each individual brush sewn into a branded brush card and packaged in a luxury gift box
    • A KINGART® PREMIUM brush makes all the difference in the world!
    • Brush sizes — The length and width of a brush of a given shape and size may vary by manufacturer as brush sizes are not standardized. Since fine art brushes are handmade, expect some variation even among brushes from within a single brush line.

    Best soft watercolor brushes

    The brushes hold a lot of liquid and evenly distribute it. Very easy to control.

    Great brushes

    These are great brushes, super or washes and detail work. Received as a Christmas gift from my wife along with the golen 9020 set. I've enjoyed using these this year painting my watercolors. They are fantastic, and the best brushes I've used, including more expensive prinston brushes. King art also included a couple of gift items with my order for me to try.
