Jackson's : Raven : Synthetic Mop Brushes : Series 528
The Raven is a short handled watercolour mop brush which is made from synthetic squirrel hair. It has an excellent take-up and release of water and holds a lot of paint which will enable you to produce long, flowing strokes. The larger sizes are especially useful for creating big washes of colour without having to reload your brush with pigment or water. The hair is soft and holds its shape really well, it retains a really nice point which will be ideal for finer detail.
Please note that this synthetic brush does not contain any animal products, either in the varnish, bristles, paint or glue.

excellent, holds water well whilst obtaining delicate fine detail (Posted on 06/04/2019)Rating - Review by Helena
I just LOVE the Raven brushes! Especially the smaller sizes. They feel so smooth on the paper, hold a lot of water and paint, and have really good points. Please make a Raven travel brush :-) (Posted on 04/04/2019)Rating - Review by Susanne
This really is a fabulous brush. Holds a good amount of paint and has a wonderful point. (Posted on 13/03/2019)Rating - Review by Mary
As per other reviews, this is a lovely brush for watercolour even at full price. A steal if you can get one at the special discounted price... recommended! (Posted on 27/11/2018)Rating - Review by Helena
I love this brush! The Synthetic Squirrel Hair is as good as real hair, and even though I'm not vegan, I definitely prefere a cruelty-free brush! (Posted on 26/11/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
Good brush, holds water well (Posted on 05/10/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
Brill brush, great price :) (Posted on 27/09/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
Holds lots of liquid, easier to control than squirrel. (Posted on 24/09/2018)Rating - Review by Moctezuma Emmanuel
I really like this brush, I feel no need for other brush as I use mix media and this brush is perfect for washes, also the point is excellent so no complaints there; but if you want a fine line I recommend the 10/0 quill Icon (Posted on 12/09/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
I thought I would try this as I have several smaller Raven brushes and have been pleased with those. This holds plenty of colour, points well and has more spring than pure squirrel mops. Lovely for big washes. I find pure squirrel hair too soft and floppy for my taste, so this suits me well. (Posted on 04/08/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
What fantastic brushes, they hold huge amounts of paint and point so well, (Posted on 17/07/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo

The Raven brushes are great to work with, hold a lot of water and release it gradually so you can paint on and on. (Posted on 20/06/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo

Good brushes at a reasonable price (Posted on 29/05/2018)Rating - Review by Diego
Painted 5 completed pieces and some studies with this brush. Amazing paint holding capabilities. Just a little bit stiffer than my previous pure squirrel brushes, but a joy to use nonetheless. Half imperial is the minimum size for this brush, although i think it does better on full sheets. (Posted on 23/05/2018)Rating - Review by Christine
Delighted with this brush. Fine tip, holds lots of water and just a pleasure to use. I can see more sizes in my future. (Posted on 23/03/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
I'm struggling to use this brush, beautiful brush but much bigger with a huge paint holding capacity than I expected. Maybe I need to start working on full imperial (Posted on 20/03/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
Superb brush, holds paint well and keeps its point (Posted on 20/03/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
Great mop brush performs as well as any squirrel brush. Retains large amount of paint, great for washes but still has a fine tip for detail. (Posted on 28/02/2018)Rating - Review by Feefo
As good as a hair brush and good value. (Posted on 15/12/2017)Rating - Review by rebecca
Famtastic watercolour brush, holding masses of paint with an excellent point. This brush and others from the Raven range have been the best ones I have used and have travelled everywhere with me. Would highly recommend them. Becky Samuelson Isle of Wight (Posted on 09/11/2017)Rating - Review by rebecca
These are really wonderful brushes. They hold masses of paint, perform beautifully when releasing the paint and also have a lovely point. I have been using constantly them since I reviewed them and am happily recommending them to all my classes. Becky Samuelson Isle of Wight (Posted on 09/11/2017)Rating - Review by Chris
Lovely brush, amazing for price. Hard to tell it's not squirrel, just a mite stiffer. Wonderful point and hold loads of paint. I love it! (Posted on 19/08/2017)Rating - Review by Margarita
Really good brush, if I didn't know i would've thought it's squirrel. Very thin end helps with small details, while thick core of this brush can hold large amount of water. I've got number 0 and its ideal for A4-A5 formats. Will purchase it again in different sizes. (Posted on 14/08/2017)Rating - Review by Chris
Brilliant brush hard to see what is different about it to squirrels except the price. (Posted on 07/08/2017)Rating - Review by Feefo
very nice brush, to be used with gouache, hoping it will be a little tougher than squirrel, for that reason. (Posted on 20/07/2017)Rating - Review by Nicholas
I brought those bushes to go on holiday to Scotland because to me they were the wright Price l seem too loose brushes on a regular base's and l did not have to worry if l did. Well what can l say these brushes are great they come to a lovely point they disrupt the water in a lovely way better then some of the more expensive brushes l have they well made for the Price . So l hope l don't loose them..l strongly recommend them they are great to use l shell be buying more. Fast delivery from Jackson's great service. (Posted on 05/07/2017)Rating - Review by Feefo
Absolutely love this brush! This is so different to standard faux-sable synthetic brushes. The bristles are soft but still hold a point, and the body holds a huge amount of water. I also have the Jackson's Icon quill in 10/0 (which I didn't realise was a natural/synthetic mix, so I'm not a bit miffed about that) and this Raven brush holds far more water and produces much better results. Definitely recommend! (Posted on 26/05/2017)Rating - Review by Eve
My favorite brush. Holds a fine point for thin lines, but can also be used with more pressure or on the side for nice broad lines. I wish it came as a travel brush too! :D (Posted on 30/04/2017)Rating - Review by Feefo
Lovely brush to use and feels as though it will last, nice quality and feels well in the hand. (Posted on 22/03/2017)Rating - Review by Mythril
Very good brushes. Virtually impossible to tell apart from the best squirrel mops on the market, soak up a ton of water and come to a fantastic point every time. (Posted on 13/01/2017)Rating - Review by Mythril

These brushes are fantastic. They are pretty much impossible to tell apart from the finest quality squirrel mops on the market. The hold a ton of water and always reform to a spectacular point. (Posted on 12/01/2017)Rating - Review by Feefo
This brush is the largest in the Raven series. Excellent for watercolour and at a price any artist can afford. I now have the full set and am really pleased with all the brushes. I have been painting with Derwent inktense which and finding them them the ideal brush. My first attempt was to paint some Mars landscapes from NASA photos which inspired me on Youtube. Inktense is a new medium to me and the brushes served me well. (Posted on 22/12/2016)Rating - Review by Feefo
I have been using this brush since ordering it. I bought it two days before a half price sale. I was so pleased that I bought the rest of the series and am well pleased in using them in watercolour and with Inktense pencils and blocks. The are ideal for Inktense as they lick up the colour well from the blocks and and make good washes of colour. This 000 size was good for detail. The only advice I would offer is to was them out thoroughly after using them with Derwents Inktense. love it for watercolour (Posted on 22/12/2016)Rating - Review by Feefo
