React

import { Brush } from '@matita/icons/react';

<Brush size={24} />

// or by name
import { SketchIcon } from '@matita/icons/react';
<SketchIcon name="brush" />

JavaScript

import { Brush, toSvg } from '@matita/icons';

toSvg(Brush, { size: 24 });   // SVG string

02How it's drawn

The recipe for brush

Brush is not stored as a drawing. It is a recipe of 1 line, 1 closed shape and 2 curves on a 24 by 24 grid, and a small program draws it like a pencil would. The wobble comes from the name, so it always comes out the same.
