Why I recommend this brush:
I created this brush for artists who enjoy a balance of softness and spring in their mark-making. The white horsehair produces clean, fluid strokes while still responding beautifully to pressure and movement. The driftwood handle adds weight, character, and a natural connection to the materials. The carved Buddha embellishment makes this brush not only functional but also a meaningful piece to hold and use in the studio.
Care instructions:
- Rinse thoroughly after use
- Do not leave the brush soaking in water
- Reshape the bristles gently with your fingers after washing
- Hang by the leather strap or lay flat to dry
