Splayed bristles
The open fan shape is designed around a different working profile.
A fan-shaped head for softer stroke experiments.
The spreading bristle arrangement is the visual center of this brush. A pink handle and narrow ferrule frame the open fan, making its difference from flat and pointed brushes easy to compare.

The bristle arrangement lets you observe several fine contact points.
The long grip area gives room to explore hand position.
The fan is easy to identify in a small brush collection.
Experiment with feathered marks, layered sweeps or a light textural study. Keep the practice simple at first, using one color and one direction. Compare the result with a flat brush only after learning the fan's movement.
Keep the session unhurried, with enough light to inspect what you are doing. A stable table and an uncluttered area make it easier to notice the position of the working end and pause when you need to. Results depend on the actual tool, the products used with it and your technique.
Begin with a single gentle sweep and inspect the individual tracks before adding another layer. Leaving the first attempt visible helps you understand the movement. Avoid loading so much product that the spread of the fan disappears; follow the art product instructions throughout your practice.
Clean with a method compatible with the actual bristles and product. Do not press the fan flat under other tools or pull apart the bristles. Allow appropriate drying and protect the working end.
Do not flick wet art products toward skin or eyes. Follow all product labels and use suitable ventilation.
