林三益筆墨專家之「如意」筆製筆過程解說

THE PURPOSE OF THE APP

A better brush produces better and livelier artwork. The best brushes are made of animal hair because natural materials have qualities that synthetic material do not. A quality brush has a pleasing springiness. It is responsive. With a quality brush, you feel that the brush and your hand are one. You can make lively brushwork because the natural hairs absorb and hold ink well. You can make long strokes without returning to the ink stone several times like a less quality brush forces you to do.

This app was created with education and appreciation in mind. Thanks to the animals that let us humans trim their hair, we can produce quality brushes. Thanks to the masters who dedicate their lives to making the best brushes. Let us treasure these tools and use them to express the beauty around us.
