The Power of Photoshop Brushes
Whenever I begin creating a new design whether it is a Print or a Web Design, one of the first things I always research are Photoshop brushes. As a designer I believe that having both a solid font and Photoshop brush collection is essential for any design. Even the design for Eric’s Empire involved several different brush sets. Some websites that I’ve created in the past have solely relied on a Photoshop brush set for the focal point of the design. The key to finding out what kind of brush to use and when to use really just depends on the kind of site you are creating. However, that is part of the beauty of Photoshop brushes. I am almost always able to find a decent set for almost any subject matter.
I decided to help out all of the designers out there with a list of my favorite sources for Photoshop brushes.
