Description

You will learn how to make at least four different brushes using arenga, tampico and broomcorn fibres. You can experiment with using different colours of nylon cord for binding and will be shown how to tie different styles of brush, such as the turkey wing and hawk tail designs. We will also discuss the history of brush making and the types of fibre that we will use. A vegetarian lunch will be provided. If you have any dietary requirements, please let me know. Please note that brush making is surprisingly physical, so you will need a reasonable amount of dexterity in your hands and feet, as well as good grip strength. If you have any questions about this, please do get in touch before booking. You might like to bring some warm socks to wear as we will be working with our shoes off! Runs from 10am - 4pm (ish).
