Brushes in Photoshop can be used for many different kinds of effects. Recently I just found out about Brusheezy. If you are like me, and seldomly use custom brushes, maybe it’s time to give them a try. And perhaps this big library with custom brushes may just make it a little easier to use.

For some tutorials on how to create or use brushes check out some of the following links (beware possible pop-ups or rogue ads): Star brush tutorial, Painting & Brushes, Creating grunge brushes , Tutorialized.Via etc.

I can’t say that I’ve used brushes for years, certainly not since my student days.
By the way: I’ve been ultra busy recently and I’ve got my head down working really hard.
I’ll be posting something by way of a global apology to all those people who I usually pay a visit to and have recently gone silent on .. such as yourself, Stephen!
That makes me feel better… I have also been rather busy lately, but most recently this past week, sick. So I didn’t notice others absence, other than the overwhelming several hundred feeds waiting to be read : ) I hope to have some posts up soon, though still fighting the last symptoms before I return completely.
