TINTORETTO Extra Bristle Retreat Brush 4 By Thierry Duval

The TINTORETTO Extra Bristle Retreat Brush 4 by Thierry Duval is a specialised tool designed for precise, expressive control in both dry and wet-on-wet techniques. Developed in close collaboration with the renowned watercolour artist, this brush is made with extremely hard fibres that allow artists to perform “colour retreats” directly on paper. It is particularly effective for recovering whites, creating soft shades, gentle halos, or subtle light spots, making it an indispensable brush for achieving refined effects and nuanced details in watercolour painting.

Thierry Duval’s more than 40 years of experience shaped the development of this brush, ensuring it meets the exacting demands of his realistic and detailed painting style. The handle is slightly heavier than that of typical watercolour brushes, offering a firmer and more stable grip that supports smoother, more controlled movements. Finished in ultramarine blue and complemented by matte golden ferrules, the brush combines functional excellence with sophisticated design. The TINTORETTO Extra Bristle Retreat Brush 4 embodies both innovation and elegance, making it a valuable tool for artists seeking precision and subtlety in their work.nes innovation, quality, and elegance in one essential tool.
