Oils

Oils brush variants let you create effects you’d expect from oil paints. Some variants are semitransparent and can be used to produce a glazed effect. Other variants are opaque and cover underlying brushstrokes.

Some Oil brush variants let you mix media as though you were working with traditional oil paints. You can use colors mixed on the Mixer pad and apply them directly to the canvas. The colors can then be blended with the oils already on the canvas. In addition, you can load multiple colors from the Mixer pad. Some Oil brush variants load the brush with a finite amount of oil, which is then transferred to the image. As you apply a brushstroke to the canvas, the brush loses oil, and the brushstroke becomes fainter. Because layers don’t have the oily properties of the canvas, brushstrokes applied to a layer don’t fade as rapidly.

Some Oil brush variants are palette knives that let you mix paint directly on the canvas. There are six brush tip profiles designed specifically for Oil brushes. For more information, see Artists’ Oils controls and Artists’ Oils brush tip profiles.
