That is neat you found one of your old brushes. LOL I have some Sable brushes that are about 35 years old now and they sure don't make them like they used to. OK well.. the affordable ones that is. How time flys. VBG I was suprised how well the Princeton's brushes are working and they are holding up very well. While I have killed some of the newer cheaper (but still more spendy than the Princeton) Sable brushes within a month. Thank you Syd for your wonderful comments!

I can remember waaaaay back to grade school trying to use cheap watercolor set on the wrong paper, wrinkly and it runs, no fun. I can equally remember watching with wonder as someone who knew what they were doing took that same cheap watercolor set and good paper and created something lovely. And a block of good paper is so portable too, when i used to hike and paint. I just found my old favorite number 6 sable brush in the closet, worn down to about half it's length. Good times!
