Brush size, shape and bristle types can be a bit dizzying, especially to a young artist entering into a store. Dick Blick has these great charts that I have posted in our studio and now on here for your reference. I suggest the following sizes in flat brushes: 6,10,14,18 and the following in round: 10,16. I also suggest you purchase synthetic or taklon bristle brushes as they are versatile (can be used for watercolor, acrylic, and oil) and are extremely durable. Of course additional brushes may be picked up later to suit your needs or preferences.
