    After selecting the appropriate brush the preliminary method you have to know is rotating the brush in desired angle. There are two ways present inside Photoshop for rotating the brush. The first way is place the brush on layer after that go inside the Edit option there you will find the option name rotate under transform. The second possible way is first select the brush tool and select the brush tip shape option. There type the data whatever you want inside the angle. There you will see one parameter for entering the second parameter. After trying this procedure two to three times you will get expertise in rotating the brushes in Photoshop. If you face any problem in this, let me come to know about that. I will definitely solve your problem.

    The basic effect that you have to try to use in Photoshop is fade effect. It is able to provide you effect like continuous stroke as we saw in paint. For that simply click on the button brushes. After clicking on that button number of options will appears in front of you. Among them select the “dynamics” option. After selecting this option Photoshop will allows you to enter the number of parameters likes roundness, minimum parameters and all that. Enter any random values and see the difference behind the effect produce by brush. There are two checkboxes present which allows you to remove this effect completely from your picture. You can make use of them deliberately to give fine effects to your picture.
