Pinceau fait main en poils de cheval auburn foncé

Love this new brush, I especially love that it's made by another artist as well! This brush makes great brush marks and keeps its shape. The bamboo handle also makes it special and has a leather strap for hanging up. All in all, a great tool to own in your brush collection that is "unique" as we all are!!

The first thing I did when I unwrapped my brush, was to run my fingers across the brush - the horse hairs we tough but supple. I knew that in my inexperienced hands I would be able to make the most wonderful marks.
At first my movements were stiff and cautious, but as I covered more paper, I found that the brush and I were flowing across the pages. The experience was like none I'd ever had in my short painting life. I am 70 and only recently taken up painting. This brush gave me joy and a feeling that I could make the marks I wanted, ones I could be proud of after all those years of thinking I couldn't make art. Thank you Elizabeth for the freedom the brush has given me.
