DBrushes should be dipped into the paint to cover only the ends of the bristles, and the paint should be applied in parallel strokes only.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Brushes should be dipped into the paint to cover only the ends of the bristles, and the paint should be applied in parallel strokes only. This is the recommended technique because dipping the brush only into the ends of the bristles helps to control the amount of paint applied, preventing excessive dripping or uneven coverage. Applying the paint in parallel strokes helps to create a smooth, even finish without leaving visible brush marks. The other options are not recommended. Dipping the entire length of the bristles can lead to too much paint being applied, while cross strokes can create an uneven, textured finish that is not desirable for most painting applications.
