Brush brush   new SolidColorBrush color       The other way around   if  brush is SolidColorBrush colorBrush      Color color   colorBrush Color    Or something like that   Point being not all brushes are colors but you could turn all colors into a  SolidColor Brush

It s often sufficient to use sibling s or parent s brush for the purpose  and that s easily available in wpf via retrieving their Foreground or Background property   ref  Control Background

If you happen to be working with a application which has a mix of Windows Forms and WPF you might have the additional complication of trying to convert a System Drawing Color to a System Windows Media Color  I m not sure if there is an easier way to do this  but I did it this way   System Drawing Color MyColor   System Drawing Color Red  System Windows Media Color   ConvertColorType MyColor    System Windows Media Color ConvertColorType System Drawing Color color      byte AVal   color A    byte RVal   color R    byte GVal   color G    byte BVal   color B     return System Media Color FromArgb AVal  RVal  GVal  BVal       Then you can use one of the techniques mentioned previously to convert to a Brush
