I love the texture that brush leaves and that lighting is *chef's kiss. When I saw the yellow at the beginning I was like...uh oh despite knowing it would turn out great 😆

[@briwidmerart]

Thank youuu 🥰 I also felt that way about the yellow and I didn't know where I'd end up 😆

I’ve started just leaving my oil brushes in a jar of safflower oil and wipe clean before the next session 😂 I clean them with Masterson’s soap and rinse with warm water once a week max. If I want to put more effort I’ll use conditioner to reshape.

The oil doesn't cause any issues? 🤔 I know leaving brushes in water can degrade the glue holding the bristles in faster buuuuuut this sounds way more doable. Thank you! Time to get safflower oil...
