Natural Sea Sponges for Artists








Natural sponges are a valuable tool for the artists studio.  Can be used to create a variation of textures and patterns.  They can also be used for applying large washes and cleaning up unwanted paint of moisture or to delete brush strokes tracks and correct mistakes.  Excellent for lifting paint and for softening and blending colors. Natural sponges are better than synthetic sponges when it comes to artistic use because are better at holding color and water like the natural hair paintbrushes. But not only hold color and water between their fibers but also absorb it directly into the fiber itself, allowing for greater color load and longer application time. A natural sea sponge  will not leave trace hairs behind in the layers so artists can apply multiple layers. The natural sponges are very durable and washable and as long as they take proper care like wash after every use, then they will last ages, and they will not degrade as the synthetic sponges.
Being a natural product, each sponge has a slightly different shape and texture, helping to create great depth in the artistic works.
