In this video I gave you a quick look at a very interesting Japanese Calligraphy brush that I have. It has horse hair, which means that the bristles are stiff and don't absorb the ink very well creating a "dry" look.
This is a Chinese brush with a tip much larger than regular brushes measuring 3.5 inches and the handle is 10 inches long. Because of the size of the tip, this brush is good for making think dynamic lines.
