On one particular morning, Ivan decided that he was going to paint without a paint brush. He chose instead to fill his entire canvas using only a toothbrush. He explains that the purpose of this piece was to show that art can be made with any kind of tool, and he certainly proves his point.

It's interesting to note that choosing a different tool to paint with opens up the possibility of finding new and varied styles. The toothbrush creates much more dynamic strokes than a paintbrush because of the way the bristles are arranged. Ivan's work is a testament to the power of exploration and experimentation in creating art; you never know how something will work or look until you try!
