The Pigment watercolor brush variants produce natural-looking watercolor effects. When working with Pigment watercolor brushes, the brushstrokes are applied to the Watercolor layer.
Stylus pressure affects the width of the brushstroke for most Pigment watercolor brush variants. Increased pressure widens a brushstroke; less pressure narrows a stroke.
If too many strokes are made within a short period, particularly with slow-drying brushes, the application can become slower. In this situation, it is best to wait for the drying process to finish before continuing.

When you select a Pigment watercolor brush, you can adjust the Water controls which allow you to specify various settings for the Pigment watercolor brushes. For example, you can adjust brush size, control diffusion, and determine how the paper texture will interact with the brushstrokes. For more information, see Water controls.
