Princeton Catalyst Wedges

When I taught in Colorado last month, my friend, Karen, gave me something that I didn't think that I really needed, a Princeton Catalyst Wedge mini (the one with the handle.) She told me that she used it for gluing (instead of having to use a brush.) Her art partner in crime, Lisa, gave me the wedge last year.

I like both but am in love with the mini (again, the one with the handle.) Karen was right. It's really great for gluing but it is also fun to paint with, scrape paint, gesso, make marks and just get messy with. I like the Wedge (W-06) for applying gesso, paint and pretty much everything that I wrote above. It is easier for me to hold in my hands than a credit card. Big thanks, Karen and Lisa, for having me try new toys and for your generosity!

I won't be buying the ones that are shaped or cut. These two are more than enough.

I've blogged about their brushes before (you can see the post here.) They are my Go To Brushes.

Have you tried either? What did you think?
