Specific Way to Clean the brush: -----------------------------------------------------
Be sure to clean your brushes after each painting session. Letting paint dry in the brush can cause it to not perform as expected. Rinsing the head of the brush with warm water LHould be enough to remove most watercolor paints, gouache, inks or dyes but an artist-grade brush cleaner can be used to make sure all traces of pigment have been cleaned off. NEVER leave your brush resting in water! This can cause the handle to crack. Always lay your brush flat to dry.
