What is a "brayer"?

A brayer is a hand-held roller used in printmaking and other art techniques to spread ink or paint evenly over a surface. It consists of a small rubber roller attached to a handle, making it easy to apply a smooth, consistent layer of material. Brayers are commonly used in processes like linocut or woodcut printing, where artists roll ink onto a block or plate before transferring the image to paper. They are also used for other techniques such as gel printing and stamping, helping to create textures and patterns in artwork.
