Etymology
The term 'dauber' has its origins in Middle English, derived from the verb 'dauben,' which means to smear or daub. This word itself can be traced back to Old French 'dauber', which refers to applying a thick layer of something, often used in a messy or careless fashion. The evolution of the term reflects its current application in art and craft, where tools and implements are used to apply colors in a deliberate or artistic manner. Historically, daubers were not widely recognized as specific tools but rather described the action of applying and smearing substances. With the rise of various artistic techniques, the term has become more specialized, referring to tools particularly suited for intricate and creative painting styles.
