How to get rid of 1500 brushes

By 23-12-2018

Due to unforeseen circumstances, 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 a huge mask. Since that moment of serendipity I see it as a challenge and an ongoing side-project to find alternative ways to get rid of my brushes.
