I love the tiny works of art. They remind me of the old 3x3 photos of the 60's and 70's, from the old film cameras. My dad took 100's of photos, some of which I still have. I paint small most of the time.
Thank you so much, Emily! This brush review was exactly what I have been looking for lately. And your tiny paintings are really adorable. Now I know what brushes I want (although the Lebenzon brushes are quite expensive).
Thank you for the review on all of these mini brushes. It’s so helpful when we want to make a purchase. The panda and bunny are adorable ❤️. I’ve painted small, but not tiny. Now I want to give them a try…challenge myself. I find I get in a comfort zone and really need to get out of it! This might be a good start! Thank you!!
Thank you! I appreciate that you took the time to show us the brushes. I paint rocks with acrylics and watercolors. I amvery much a novice and I struggle finding the "Perfect " brush cor very thin lines. I like to outline my work and I like borders. I look for more of your videos as I would love to learn to paint with watercolors more.
Hi I am new to painting and like you purchased the golden brushes. They split and make two lines, unfortunately I have no plans of painting tiny railroad tracks. Thanks so much for this information. I will have to watch this again and make some notes.
O the panda is ADORABLE!!! I LOVE HIM! I have always done small paintings I guess bc I'm just a novice and I use the good paints and paper and it's still not inexpensive! But gift all my friends and they are delighted (lol). 😂 Probably why they're still my friends. Hehehehe. But thank you so much! You are lovely and your paintings are amazing!!!
Wow, even painting that tiny they look fantastic. I have always love doing tiny detail work but never tried painting something so small. Thanks for the review of the papers and brushes.
Hii Emily! I really liked the brushes that you said they were your favorites for tiny paintings! And the hot pressed paper, in my opinion, was better to work tiny!
When I get in the zone I forget to eat also! The Silver Brushes are great and Lebesion is no surprise ... I have taken the body of a ball point pen and glued skinny brush handles inside them
trying to find out if those Lebenzon brushes can be shipped to Canada. The Copic opaque white looks like something I would like for whiskers, Great little video!
I like working small, but don’t work that small - that feels cramped. I have made greeting cards and I often do 5x7 or 4x6. With some of my slender handle detail brushes, I wrap the handles with the same painter’s tape I use to tape my paper down. Why? Cause it was sit’n there next to me. I mound it up to a preferred thickness and shape it to suit my hand’s need. It doesn’t make sense to me pay a lot of money for the handle. More important is how much paint the tip holds. the lines it can produce and how the paint releases. I’ve been using Princeton aqua elite liner and series 7 Winsor and Newton brushes. These have a small “belly” to help with grip and manipulate the brush.
Can you recommend a specific set of lebenzon brushes. I'm undecided whether to just get small or a mix... I paint in a variety of sizes... which is your favorite small one?
I really wanted to buy some of the Lebenzon brushes but the person I got into contact with was very rude when I asked if they use paypal as I NEVER put my raw credit card info on any website that isn’t super mainstream since it’s been stolen multiple times from websites like that. Pretty much got told, you either pay this way or you don’t get the brushes since they will never use PayPal. Not very professional but on the bright side it saved me $250.
@@EmilyOlsonArt it’s alright :) I love my Princeton heritage brushes and I got a great set of super mini brushes from Jerry’s that are incredible. They’re called micro mini by creative mark. Got them on sale. Might still be going if you’re interested.
Don’t cut the hair! The brush needs to be thoroughly wet with warm water before using, to help the bristles absorb paint and stay in a point. There are more thorough brush instructions on the Lebenzon website. :-)

Lovely little paintings, and a good way to review these brushes I think!
Thanks so much 😊
First video of your work and I’m perplexed. Beautiful works. Thank you for sharing your experiences with brushes. I appreciate those videos.
So cute, great brush recommendation, thank you.😊
You’re welcome 😊
Cute tiny drawings!
When the handles ar every slim/thin, to add thickness, try wrapping the handle with electrical/gaffer tape (about 1inch/25mm)
What a helpful suggestion! Thank you!
Adorable paintings! 😍
Thank you for this video, I am thinking of changing my small brushes and your review was very helpful
So glad it was helpful!
Lovely
Super fun!
Wow! Great video info. So good! Thank you!
You are so welcome!

I tried the tape hack on a skinny brush today and it worked great! WAY more comfortable! Thanks for sharing your thoughtful comment!
The Japanese style of watercolour brushes may suit you well. They’re designed from the bamboo brushes, so they have a fatter handle that shrinks down.
Can you recommend a specific set of lebenzon brushes. I'm undecided whether to just get small or a mix... I paint in a variety of sizes... which is your favorite small one?
Love the small brown synthetic 3/4 or 1" bristle brush!
Would the lebenzon white synthetic or the itty bitty orange work for these ?
Yes! They probably aren't QUITE as fine a point as the natural bristles, but those are super brushes.
What paint or other painting matter do you use for whiskers?
I have a video about that! Here it is: 5 Ways to Paint White Animal Whiskers in Watercolor

Where can I get 5he brushes you recommend and what’s the cost please?
They are all listed in the description. 🙂
Where did you get your bamboo brushes?

I ordered that labenzon brush (I believe from your site). It has long loose hair at the tip, making it difficult to paint. Do I cut that hair?
Don’t cut the hair! The brush needs to be thoroughly wet with warm water before using, to help the bristles absorb paint and stay in a point. There are more thorough brush instructions on the Lebenzon website. :-)
Methinks my eyes are too old for such tiny paintings
It's definitely not for everyone! 🤪
Lol
Lol
So osam
If I had found the information I requested in the description I wouldn’t have asked.
