Michael Shane Neal talks about
Silver Brushes

"I want to express my sincere thanks for manufacturing the finest brushes I have ever used! For more than 10 years, I have been using a selection of your Silver Grand Prix™ filbert bristle brushes. They have become the only brush I use in both my portrait and landscape work, and the only brush I recommend to my students as well. The bristles hold a generous amount of paint and also maintain their shapes exceptionally well after months of daily use. Even the handles have been thoughtfully designed.: long with a nice full shape and an excellent painted matte finish. Glossy painted handles always slip in my fingers with a little wet paint on my hands!
I have also recently been using a variety of your new sable brushes. They too have the same exceptional quality as the bristle brushes I regularly use. Though my work is more dependent on the durability of the bristle line of brushes, the sables make an excellent addition for careful blending of edges, softening an area slightly, or for small details that need the softer touch of the sable.
Thanks again for your thoughtful design, attention to detail, and exceptional quality of Silver Brushes. I have never used or seen a finer brush on the market today.

All warm personal wishes and many thanks.
