01 / UNDERSTAND THE SHAPE
What makes
this brush distinctive.
A little paint, a precise touch
This small shape suits localised details. Load it sparingly and check the tip before each important accent.
For acrylics and oils
The synthetic tip suits detail work in acrylics and oils. In watercolour, its main use is for small, individual accents.
02 / YOUR SIZE
Format and use.
The short pointed head is intended for small touches. Match the paint load to each accent and test the mark before using it in your picture.
No. 5/01.5 mm
Size 5/0 with a 1.5 mm head for highlights, small accents and short corrections.
The millimetre measurement describes the head size. Your painted mark results from angle, pressure, paint load and surface.
03 / FROM TOOL TO MARK
A brief touch. A deliberate accent.
For small details, paint load and a steady hand matter. Work with the tip and keep pressure light enough to avoid splaying the head unnecessarily.
Load the tip sparingly
Pick up paint on the front of the head. A test dab shows whether it releases cleanly from the tip.
Make a brief touch
Place the point with a short touch. Lift off before the small accent becomes an area of colour.
Work one accent at a time
Look at the subject between accents. Switch to a liner when you need a longer line.
04 / IN THE STUDIO
A few dots bring a picture to life.
A dark area gains interest from a few light touches. Try several small dots on a spare piece first, then decide where your subject needs an accent. The studio lesson shows the spotter making small details and highlights.
- Rest your hand only on a dry part of the painting.
- Reload for a new accent rather than pressing harder on the tip.
- Leave quiet areas between details.

06 / GOOD TO KNOW
Your questions.
Clear answers.
Is size 5/0 designed for long, fine lines?
The short head is best suited to individual details and short accents. For a long, continuous line, the liner brush 4621 offers a more suitable head shape.
Does 1.5 mm also mean a 1.5 mm dot?
The millimetre measurement describes the brush head. The size of a dot or stroke depends on paint load, consistency, contact and pressure.
Can I paint watercolours with the spotter?
Fleury lists only limited watercolour use for this series, mainly for small accents. For wetter strokes and larger watercolour areas, the round brush 4401 or oval wash brush 4442 are more natural choices.
Why is my small accent too wide?
A heavily loaded tip, very thick paint or excessive pressure can widen the mark. Pick up less paint, check its consistency and begin with a light test dab.
