Many types of brushes and rollers are can easily be found.
Try a few different designs until you find one that is comfortable for you.
Make sure that the paint applicators are the right style and texture for your choice of paint.
Another good technique is sponge painting.
This technique takes much more time but can be very rewarding.
Start with a solid color for the background.
Make sure that the background is dry before sponging the second color over it.
To sponge the color on, simply dip the sponge in the paint and dab it all over the wall.
This does not require a pattern.
In fact, sponge painting usually looks best when applied randomly.
