What Makes a 'Good' Paintbrush Work Well?

A good paintbrush feels like it’s dancing with the paint. The bristles are soft and strong, so they don’t break when you move them quickly. If the brush is too stiff or too floppy, it can make your painting look messy. Imagine a brush that's like a happy puppy, bouncy but gentle.
