These unique and beautiful brushes were made with antique ramrod sections, horsehair, and ceramic ferrules with a metallic glaze. The ramrod handles are over 100 years old, are soft, satiny, and have a naturally rich patina.
White Coarse Horsehair Brush MSB #1:
This coarse white horsehair is stiffer, has great flex, strong spring, and will make a wide variety of marks. The horsehair has a traditional Asian brush shape. The brush bristle will hold a lot of media and can make very bold and dynamic marks.

- A leather hanging strap
- The ferrule is ceramic
- The handle was made using a section of an antique ramrod.
Bristlehead:
- The coarse white horsehair is 3.75" in length

The Goat Hair Mop Brush MSB #3:
This mop paintbrush was made with my premium white goat hair. It has a mop shape bristle head, that is full and large. Goats' hair is super absorbent and soft and is an ideal bristle type for this kind of brush.
This brush has:
- A leather hanging strap

Bristlehead:

My brushes are made to create a vast array of marks. When I make a brush I think about all aspects of the tool: how it looks, how it feels in the hand, and how it paints - to ensure that the end product is a true "fine art tool".
