I just updated the Art Brushes Complete Set today and I noticed that although I say there are 350 Photoshop brushes in it, with the Pencils its more like 400 and add in all the freebies and you can get close to 450!

Free Wreath Brush!! This is me painting in Photoshop with one of my new dynamic pattern brushes ( grutbrushes.com/borders ) from the new Pattern brushes set "Borders and Lines" I added some layer style effects at the end for fun! You can download this wreath brush for free there (scroll down to the big orange button in the FAQ section. The button says:"Download Wreath Brush" See the end of the video) You can also buy the whole set there which includes all future updates! There are 15 pressure responsive dynamic border Pattern brushes in there right now but this set will grow over time and so will the price! (Unless you buy it now) Buy it today and you will get every pattern brush I ever add to this set in the future (but you'll never pay again!) The price will go up as the set gets bigger, it went from $1 to $2 in the first 3 days so lock in at whatever today's price is and you can download the set again free later when it's bigger. Could be another 30, could be 100 more brushes...I really don't know. The last time I did this was with InkyLeaks FX brushes and I started the price at $1 for 15 brushes and the set ended up with 100 brushes! (that's a penny per brush for those who jumped on early!) Any questions just ask! Here are some Frequently Asked Questions: Can I use it in “xyz” app? ------------------------- It only works in Photoshop on the desktop but I have also installed them successfully on the iPad Pro in Artstudio Pro - an amazing app! (I suppose it should work in the Mac desktop version of Artstudio Pro too but I haven't tried it) and they also work in Adobe Sketch on the iPad Pro They won’t work in any other apps (not Krita, Procreate, GIMP, Painter, nor Elements, etc) Though I do hope to convert them to Affinity brushes, probably in September (some aliasing issues with Affinity right now!) Which versions of Photoshop can I use them in? ---------------------------------------------- Any version from CS5 and up What Format are they? ------------------------- TPL and ABR (the abr is the CC2018 format which wnot work in older versions. if your Photoshop is older than 2018 you must install TPL version) How do I get updates if I buy the set? ------------------------------------------ Once you buy the set you will get a link to download it from your account. When I add new brushes to it you can just download it again and you will get any new brushes I add to it forever How do I install them? --------------------------------------------- Instructions are included. Basically you drag the appropriate set onto the Photoshop icon on your desktop (win) or dock (mac) There are a number of other ways too, just see the instructions. More help and tutorials here: grutbrushes.com/help/ Can I use them with a mouse? --------------------------------------------- If you don’t have a graphics tablet with a stylus you can use them with a mouse, but it’s not as fun because they won’t be pressure responsive, so they will all be the same size. You could also use the Fade setting with a mouse to get the line to taper (see the tip on the page grutbrushes.com/borders for how to do that
