Blog test

Since Betty Byrd Brushes are no longer available in the market, Liz has been researching and trying out new brushes for the studio. She was introduced to the art brushes offered by Scharff Brushes and was immediately impressed with their excellent quality. The studio has since started ordering a selection of Golden Talkon and the new Bringle Blenders. We do have the #2 round Bringle Blender that we have needed for our portrait classes.
Scharff Brushes is a family owned business that has been in business since 1968.
They offer a wide selection of brushes for multiple mediums and to date their service has been courteous and prompt. We look forward to continuing our new relationship with them.
We still have some Betty Byrd brushes in stock. If you are interested in purchasing a few before they disappear, come in to Artful Endeavors and check out our supply.
