A New Brush

As I indicated in "Inventing Colour..." I also created a new brush.  I named it bug.  The following are the steps.

After I've created the following painting...



...and yes, once again, you could stop laughing now.

In Photoshop, I clicked "/Image/Adjustments/Desaturate" or Shift-CMD-U my Mac (Shift-CTRL-U on a PC) to desaturate or turn the image into black and white.

Then I selected the Lasso tool and after tracing/defining the part I believe would be a good looking brush, I clicked "/Edit/Define Brush Preset" and a menu window popped up and gave the new brush a name.  Clicked ok.




In "/Windows/Brush" or F5, I looked for the new brush I created to test it.  Now there's another brush to play with.
