Comment on Comparing Synthetic watercolour brushes Part 3 by Rowena Magsino

Thank you for validating my experience with the Escoda Versatil. I thought I had damaged it by cleaning it with hot water (tap water here in Abu Dhabi is hot except during the winter months) but though I shaped it with da Vinci soap, it remained that way even when I re-used it 5 years later. If I lived in the UK I would have returned it but international shipping even before Covid costs a lot.

Hi Lizzie – as they’ve all said – beautiful and highly informative work! Thanks+++!!!
I’ve been trying to understand adaptations in Australian grasses. Given your evident interest in ‘info about x’, you might like to add to your tales of ‘Goodness gracious – grasses!!’ the following links in which observers describe &/or explain how black speargrass (Heteropogon contortus) seeds screw themselves into moist soil. It’s a wonderful piece of small-scale engineering!

Best regards for your important and effective blending of art & science!!
