This was so cool! Since stumbling my way across Illustrator for the past several months, I feel the need to improve my workflow. I know things but not usually the best way to do them and such nifty little tips and shortcuts are exactly what would make my life easier :) Thanks Grant! .-= Sneh Roy´s last blog ..47 Creepy Bizarre And Terrifying Photo Manips To Scare You =-.

Kyle,

You are right Illustrator and Photoshop handle brushes in drastically different ways. I will work up a screencast for you and show you how this is done. It’s actually very easy to do.

Grant,

Thanks for the quick tutorial. Since I’ve been doing a lot more illustrations lately, learning to utilize the power of the brush in Illustrator is becoming more and more important. But that one thing that irritates me is the drastic difference between how brushes work in Photoshop and Illustrator.

One thing I’d like to know is how do I keep a custom brush that I’ve created in the brushes library, so if I open a new document I can still use that same brush.

Thanks and keep up the good work.
