Figure 4 shows the result of my experiments. Working on your practice file, enjoy exploring brushwork with the different Useful Mixer Brush Combinations settings. With the Very Wet setting, less pigment is applied, with more blending. Using the same magenta color, paint a new vertical patch of magenta that overlaps the cyan paint.
With the Moist setting, the brush applies less color and blends like moist paint. Next, choose Moist in the Useful Mixer Brush Combinations menu, and paint a second vertical patch of magenta color over the cyan. Using the Dry setting, paint a vertical patch of color that overlaps the cyan stroke. After you've painted the cyan stroke, choose a new color in the Swatches panel (I chose pastel magenta). Using the cyan color and the Flat Blunt Short Stiff preset, paint a wavy horizontal brushstroke along the top of your image. In the Options bar, make sure that Dry is chosen in the Useful Mixer Brush Combinations menu. My file is 800 × 600 pixels.Ĭhoose the Flat Blunt Short Stiff preset, and then increase its size to about 30 pixels by using the Size slider on the Brush Presets panel.
Open a new file by choosing File > New, and set up a small file to practice with the brushes. Click a color to paint with it (I chose dark cyan). Next, if the Swatches panel is not in view, open it by choosing Window > Color > Swatches. Select your object using the selection tool.The Dry setting is chosen in the Useful Mixer Brush Combinations pop-up menu. For best results, play around with the contrast of the image to get a better idea of the results. Step 3: Draw or place an imageįor custom brushes, you can work with a file or drawing that has color, but the image will translate to black and white (wherein the black or color variation becomes the brush pattern). This helps make selecting the new shape easier. In Layers, make a new layer without a background. Details while brush resizing tend to be more visible and stay intact when brushes are created using a larger pixel size. To start creating custom brushes in Photoshop, you can use any canvas size, however, when drawing or using an image, try to work on a large canvas. Method 1: Create a Photoshop custom brush with the “Brush” tool Step 1: Pick a canvas Here’s a quick, step-by-step guide to help you get started with custom brushes. Exploring with other art materials will add even more depth to your brush tool box. Photoshop custom brushes can be made using images, shapes, or brush strokes in the program. The default brushes in Photoshop don’t have much variety, and it can sometimes feel like there isn’t much to work with. You can remedy this by making your own Photoshop custom brushes adding new brushes and experimenting with textures is easy to do in Photoshop.
