6/7

Ans

In Photoshop, the painting tools are used to paint strokes, and fill areas with color or with colors that blend

together. Knowing how to use the paint tools is a must for any artist who wishes to use Photoshop.

The Brush Tool

In order to use the brush tool to its full extent, its important to understand whatexactly a brush is in

Adobe Photoshop. A brush uses brush presets that are predefined (or user defined). A brush preset is

any brush tip with defined characteristics (such as size and shape).

Think of brushes in Photoshop as a large collection of different

paintbrushes, each with a different shaped tip. Imagine when you press the tip of one of these

paintbrushes against a canvas; the shape of the tip is imprinted immediately. Its a rough explanation, but it

gets the basic idea across.

Brushes in Photoshop have plenty of other characteristics which make them entirely unlike a real world

paint brush. By manipulating these attributes, we can create entirely new brushes that act in unique ways.

You could create a brush that changes in shape and size as you are painting, a brush that scatters itself in

random directions, and even a brush that becomes more and less transparent while creating strokes. The

possibilities are literally endless.


7/7

Eraser Tool

Were not going to go into too much detail with the eraser tool, simply because you should already have a

pretty good understanding of how it works. How so?

Well, like many other tools in Photoshop, the Eraser Tool uses brushes which effect the size, shape, and

hardness of the tool. Essentially, the eraser tool is controlled in the exact same way as the brush tool, only

it erases rather than paints.

Gradient Tool

The Gradient Tool is very similar to the paint bucket tool, in that it fills entire areas or selections with

colors. However, rather than filling an area with a solid color, the Gradient Tool creates a series of colors

than blend into one another.

When the gradient tool is selected, a preset gradient can be selected from the gradient picker in the

options bar. A gradient can then be created in the active image area by clicking and holding the mouse

button, and dragging in the direction youd like the gradient to go. Release where youd like the gradientto stop.
