Hello there it's Antrice and welcome to another episode of the Savvy Painter

podcast. This episode is sponsored by Trachell Art Supplies.

For over 30 years, Trachell has been obsessed with the art of brushmaking, and now they're applying that same

Both their brushes and panels are made right here in California at their

Hesperia factory.
