What makes the Pelikan Starter Set different
Unlike single-brush purchases, this set combines the most commonly needed brush sizes in one package, saving time and ensuring that the right tool is always at hand. The brushes are purpose-built for watercolour and tempera painting in educational settings, balancing durability with enough softness to work well on paper.
Ideal for...
Primary school art classes, after-school painting programmes, and hobbyist children who are just starting to explore watercolour techniques. The graduated size range also supports more advanced students working on detailed illustrations or larger-format projects.
Application of the Pelikan Brush Starter Set

Load the brush with watercolour paint and test the stroke on a spare sheet before working on the final piece
Rinse brushes thoroughly with water after each session and reshape the bristles to maintain their form
Store the set in its original packaging or a dedicated brush roll to keep the bristles protected and the sizes organised
