The Adobe Photoshop user toolbox is very different from the real artist's toolbox. Unlike an artist, the user cannot turn the brush in his hand as it is necessary with a simple movement of his fingers - special settings will be required. But the artist does not have brushes at hand, the prints of which are full-fledged drawings. But even such brushes in the program sometimes have to be rotated.

Instructions

Step 1

The first way to unwrap a brush in Photoshop is using the Brushes palette. Select the brush you want. Then in the upper right-hand corner find an icon that looks like a list - this is a palette of brushes (Toggle the Brushes Palette). Click it. A window will appear with a choice of the type of brush. To unfold the brush, select Brush Tip Shape. There you will see a circle with a cross and an arrow. Click on the arrow and drag, rotating it - on the palette below you will see how the brush unfolds. You can also set a specific numerical value in the white box - the brush will rotate by the specified number of degrees. In the same palette of brushes, you can choose many other parameters - set special effects for the trace left by the brush, adjust the opacity, diameter, add texture, change the number of marks left by the brush, and much more. Try changing a few parameters and you'll have a completely new brush.

Step 2

When using the second method, work is carried out with a ready-made brushprint. This method is suitable when the brushprint is a complex design that needs to be applied only once. Create a new layer (Layer - New layer). Select the brush you want and place a print on the layer. Then select the Rectangular Marque Tool from the toolbar and select the area with the brushprint with it. Right click inside the selection and choose Free Transform. Now you can rotate the print the way you want. If you want to mirror it, then right-click again and select Rotate and the desired direction. You can do the same using the Image - Rotate Canvas command in the top menu of the program.
