Stroke brushes are designed with a longer, narrower flat shape that allows for fluid, expressive marks and smooth, continuous strokes. Compared to standard flat brushes, which are typically shorter and broader for blocking in color or creating sharp edges, stroke brushes hold more paint and release it gradually. This makes them ideal for pulling long lines, soft blending, and graceful transitions.
