Creating a Border using the Bristle brushes
In this next section, you use a bristle brush to create an artistic border around the edge of
the image.
1
Select the Round Blunt Medium Stif bristle brush from the Brush Presets panel.
2
Choose any color that you want to use for the border you are about to create. In this
example we use the default black.
3
Click in the upper-left corner of the image. This is the top-left corner for your border.
Hold down the Shift key and click in the lower-left corner. By Shift+clicking you
have instructed Photoshop that you want a stroke to connect from the initial click to
the next.
4
Shift+click in the lower-right corner, and then continue this process until you return
to your original stroke origin in the upper-left corner.
The completed border.
