Collection of ten handmade art brushes

Natural Art Brushes

These brushes, made from fallen branches, recycled bristols, and feathers, are used for mark making in your art work.  Mark making is defined as a technique making diverse lines, dots, patterns and textures.  It is not unheard of to use these brushes for display as well!

A lot of steps go into the finished product, including removing the bark, sanding, applying wax or oil, and drilling holes to add recycled brush material or feathers. I also enjoy wrapping them in velvet, thread, fabric, or applying a wood burned design.

Suggestions: when using these for mark making, you may want to water down your paint.  When cleaning, use a mild soap and avoid submerging the handle.

These brushes are naturally one of a kind creations.  Contact me at suehandman@yahoo.com and I can show you what brushes are available.

Prices range from $25.00 – $45.00.
