Mottlers can be useful when preparing a surface, suitable for priming due to their ability to hold large amounts of pigment. A mottler is also a useful shape for blocking in fields of color, as well as under-painting. Mottlers can also achieve many of the effects typically associated with other flat brush types, commonly used on a larger scale or to cover more of a surface.
