About the Paintbrush
A paintbrush spreads paint or ink using a clump of bristles held to a handle by a metal band called a ferrule. Thick brushes fill in big areas fast, while thin ones are for fine lines and details. The best brushes were once made from soft animal hair. Print this for an art-table corner and trace the handle down to the bristle tip.
- The metal band that holds the bristles to the handle is called a ferrule.
- Wide brushes cover big areas, while thin ones paint fine details.
