It may be hard to believe, but these are my favorite brushes for painting.
They are the least valuable and cheapest I have, but I love their imperfections on canvas.

 This is the way of the artist. 

Even though I have a Canon R6, I still prefer my 5D Mark IV, despite it being largely an inferior machine.

It's all about the tool you're most comfortable with.

 No, I prefer to let time take its toll.

 Ohhh naturally worn 

I see 

I wooden handle brushes very similar to that. 

Not for painting or art
But for applying grease to mold components… 

Love those types of brushes 
Only reason I said something is bc I cut the tips off mine to shorten 
It’s gets in the grease grooves better 
I’m weird 🤣

 Oh yeah! Painting with a palette knife. This is the way! Have a look at the Canadian Group of Seven. This was one of their techniques on sketch boards.

 I’m a huge fan of the cheapest gnarled brushes
