Handmade Brushes: A Master Workshop with Ying Zhou -Afternoon Session
Indian River Clay invites you to a brush-making workshop with master ceramicist, Ying Zhou. Ying will provide a hands-on lesson in making unique brushes with animal hair or feathers (a variety will be provided by the artist) and bamboo or tree branch handles. The brushes participants make to keep could be fashioned for use with paints, stains, and / or glazes. Ying makes “Zen brushes,” each one unique which “will create a line or image that is different than any other brush.” She writes, “The more we can relax and allow our energy to be directed down through the length of the brush, the more authentic our brushstroke will be. Our uniqueness and our individual creative nature will be reflected in each stroke and in the overall image that is created.” Ying will demonstrate brush-making and discuss the use and care of brushes. She will then assist participants in creating their own brushes to take home.
