March 2021 and some awesome brushes to try out!

Hope all is well with you!
All good here at the lab; a couple new tutorials and a few coming up that I’m really excited about. I’ve been digging deep into this Art History Brush Tool - have you guys experimented with this thing? At first it seems a little gimmicky, but once you start really tuning in some custom brushes, you can get some INSANE looks out of it. I’m working on a tutorial to create an Oil Paint look this month, so I’ll probably make one set of brushes available on the website, but I’ve come up with a bunch of ‘em and thought you guys might want to try out a few.
Here’s a link to a set of pencil brushes - maybe I’ll do a video on these specifically at some point, but for now they’re just sitting in the arsenal. I believe I can attache the brushes to the Patreon post below, but if that doesn't work, here's a link:

If you haven’t used the Art History brush tool, simply open any image (something flat like a jpg), import these brushes into the brushes palette, select one, and start scribbling around. It doesn’t matter what your foreground or background colors are - it samples colors based on the History of your document. I’ll explain that a bit more in the tutorial, but give it a shot! Here’s a sample - no brush skills required, all I did was scribble around…
The usual wrap up - two new tutorials up this month, one more posting on Monday. A few new textures in the pipeline... You can probably tell my brain is in about four places at once, probably because I just keep getting more exited about the whole project.
A huge thank you for the continued support. Hit me up any time with thoughts or questions. Have a great month!
Cheers,
Brady

Nice, thanks Tuomas! I have a list of recommendations for the Adobe developers, with the crazy idea that one day the texturelabs project might be big enough they'd consider some. The Art History Brush is already pretty awesome... but if they just made a few tweaks to it, it would be one of the coolest things about Photoshop!
That oil painting tutorial was awesome, cheers!
