You can draw with the brushes, or you can apply them to existing strokes.ĭrawing with the Paintbrush tool is similar to drawing with the Pencil tool. #25 Applying or Drawing with BrushesĪs noted in the introduction to this chapter, there are two ways to use the Paintbrush tool. However, for most of the techniques in this chapter the assumption is that you have drawn your path, and are now ready to apply brush stroke attributes to that path. The disadvantage is that you have to manage both drawing and strokes simultaneously. The advantage is that you can draw a path and apply stroke attributes all at once.
You can select a brush from Illustrator's Brushes palette and "paint" with it, using a mouse or drawing tablet. Among these effects is an amazing variety of brushlike stroke attributes. The paths can have an almost infinite variety of fills, stroke properties, and other effects. Remember that the heart of Illustrator is the ability to define vector paths, usually using the Pen or Pencil tool. For all practical purposes, drawing a path and applying a brush stroke are generally two distinct processes in digital design, particularly in Illustrator. Or, for a more modern example, imagine a painter with an array of paintbrushes.
