Which is your fave brush?

by Kim Moody
This is mine- a Gare Ultimate Mini-liner. I’ ve had this brush for 22 years, since I did my Gare Ceramic teacher training. Oddly, the brush was made in England, sent to Gare in, Haverhill, MA USA, then sold back to me- in England.
It is showing signs of age and wear, paint peeling from the handle, not quite as straight as it was, but the bristles are as supple as ever, and it does the best tendrils and hair in the business.
Which is your favourite brush? Take a picture and tell us its story.
