Additional textural variety
More controlled and smooth paint application
Bolder and cleaner strokes
Layered color with less disruption of other paint
Experimentation with new application techniques
More opportunities for using mixed media

Our Curated Collection of Creative Essentials

Whatever artist tools you need to expand your set, we have them all. Trekell offers tools in varying sizes and shapes to give you the right fit for your project. We also provide a complete set of alternative brushes, including a shaper, palette knife and wipe-out tool in one.

Shapers

Paint shapers look like a silicone paintbrush with a color shaper tip rather than bristles. We offer this tool in various widths — 1, 1.5 and 2 inches. All brushes have a 6-inch handle, which gives a comfortable grip and precise control. These tools work with media like:

Acrylic
Oil
Gouache
Ink
Enamel paint

Use this tool to blend, shape, add texture and smooth paint. The material also creates unique marks and can push and pull paint. Other applications include adding masking fluid to your work.

Palette and Paint Knives

Painting and palette knives are hard metal tools with a blade. Traditionally, palette knives are straight and mix paint on a palette, while painting knives have an angular blade for applying paint to a canvas. These tools work for oil, acrylics, oil and other media.

Trekell offers six knives in these shapes:

Multi-angle
Long spatula
Thin teardrop
Wide teardrop
Rounded teardrop
Diamond

The knives have a stainless steel blade and a rubber handle for comfortable grip. Each shape has unique applications. Typical uses include picking up paint from the palette, adding texture to a painted surface, creating edges, scraping paint off a surface and placing paint over other wet layers without disturbing them.

Wipe Out Tool

The wipe out tool includes a cylindrical handle with rubberized tips on either side. One is a wedge, and the other is pointed. Use it for:

Removing paint from precise areas
Creating text or intricate designs
Carving into the edges of wet paint
Sharpening linear edges
Adding highlights

This tool works with media like oil, gouache, acrylic, ink and enamel paint. The wipe out tool can also be used with pastels and charcoal, making it valuable for any artist.
