Kwastkop

2016

Since we stopped with the production of our BRUSH coat hangers, I was left with 1500 disposable paintbrushes. I tried selling them online, but there was little to no interest for 1500 paintbrushes. I tried selling them as beer openers, still no interest. I even offered a one-hour workshop “How to sell 1500 disposable paintbrushes”, including a starting-kit of 1500 paintbrushes, but no luck.

So in a moment of boredom I made a big smiley on my floor using the brushes, which eventually led to making this huge mask.

As Bob Ross once said: “I like to beat the brush.”
