International students, seeing Hu brushes for the first time, were curious about their shape and manufacturing process. When they first picked up a Hu brush, they were unsure how to use. Teachers began by introducing the history of the Chinese brush, thenguided students on how to hold the brush, dip it in ink, and move it.
