DESCRIPTION:
Today we'll talk about the incredible Mixer Brush tool in Photoshop. As I point out in the video, there is hardly a tool in Photoshop that has the depth and complexity of things you can do with it as the Mixer Brush tool. This tool is absolutely incredible if you really get the hang of using it and exploring the features and power that this tool affords. Check it out and find more tutorials on it too! I love this tool!

Nice tutorial, thank you so much =D
1:10 load is how much pigment gets put on the paintbrush
1:54 we want to mix some colors on the bottom layer
3:16 sample a 3-color pattern to draw
OMG THANK.YOU. I have been using this tool for a few years and never really thought to look up what it actually does so I haven't been using it to it's potential. I can make my paintings so much better now. Holy crap.
+TylerGrrrl Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the kind words!
Hi how are you
Thanks !
For those struggling to achieve the same effect as I did, make sure to uncheck "Load Solid Colors Only" in the brush dropdown menu.
omg this will be such a game changer to my paintings, that was EXACTLY what I was looking for
This was so incredibly helpful and exactly what I needed!!!
Thank you for not talking as fast as you usually do. I could actually follow you this time.
Hi, I am learning a lot from your video. I am unable to sample multiple colors with OPTION key like in your example. I am using Photoshop 23.5.4. Any suggestions? Thanks!
I always feel wow for this mixer brush!
I'd like to add that if you just dab the brush on one spot it gets a copy of your load unsmuged and with the properties of the brush you have, (round square etc) it's a cool way to integrate photos or whatever you are sampling from in to your image beside the usual copy and paste
I was looking for this video all morning… thank you SO MUCH ♥️
can you show how to sampling whole texture when using mixer brush, when I press alt it just pick the color
same here
Tick "Sample All Layers" at the top right
In the video, it is noted at 2:26
you have to uncheck load solid colors only as well.
@@TWspk66 AND HOW?
As Timmy Wong says, Load solid colors has to be unchecked
Thanks for your video! I ignored this tool for YEARS until I saw a background tutorial talking about it. And I was "What is that thing? I never heard about it! Sooo thank you! ♥
The video I've been looking for! THANKS!
Couldn't reproduce the effect on CS6 :(
i'm not sure if my brushes are setup correctly and i also don't have a drawing tablet, what should i do?!
Fábio Lobão Dolzani buy the tablet 😉
I wish I knew about the 'Mixer Brush Tool' earlier. Thank you sir.
This is really a excellent tuts.. i never knew this being a retoucher. I really appreciate for sharing wonderful tip..
+Ram Kumar Thanks, Ram!
thanks for this vid, great pace and delivery, perfect !
crisp and very informative video, Thanks for sharing
I was thinking I used to use it where it would clean itself each time and simply smear the colors used. I can't see how I did that anymore, is it still possible? (I'm just wanting to smooth color on the face in frequency separation without building the colors each stroke.)
Thank you so much! Very helpful video! Short and concise.
So awesome, I didn't even know it was there! Thank you
+Dan ploof Thanks, Dan! Glad you enjoyed it!
How do I switch back to the regular/normal brush tool? Not sure what happened but all of a sudden it's disappeared and is replaced w/this 'awesome' mixer brush.
excelent tutorial, brief and to the point, thanks!
On the colour picker pulldown there are Load/Clean Brush options. How is that different from the Load/Clean Brush buttons that are beside the colour picker?
it's really impressive! thank you for your tuts! you are the BOMB.
+Isabel Hon Thanks, Isabel!
can someone pls tell me how to get the mix and wet option :( i had it but now its gone for some reason...i did something but idk what and now its gone...now the only option i have is opacity and flow.
Love this, this was so helpful thnk you! :)
thank you, that alt key is the trick I'm looking for.
5:41 Me when I take my glasses off.
Nobody likes putting both instructions on how to use the tool and instructions on how to paint with it in the same video. It's always either or.
Awesome videos man! Gonna have to binge all of them at some point! :D
Thanks! I hope you enjoy them!
Nice video sir... thanks
Is there any way to emulate this mixer brush tool in CSP?
Thank you for response back. Keep up with the good tutorial's .
Nice and very helpful
Jeez, I have totally missed out on that one. Looking forward to giving this tool a try this weekend :)
+ScumOfTheNation Thanks for the comment! Much appreciated!
get it. got it. good!
🍻
one question how to combine layer with background images and combine all layers into one which keys? thanks
+Gevorg Matevosyan highlight layers you want to combine and hit CMD+E,
but the handiest one to learn and its a bit full on, but once learnt it is great as you still have all the layers and it creates a copy on the top is
shift + alt + cmd + e for mac
(Swap the cmd for control on pc)
thanks a lot Lee
Thank you.
When I hold down alt I can't get a sample instead of this I have eyedropper
SUPER UNDERSTANDING!!
why can't i use a selfmade brush in mixerbrush?
I've been watching your videos because I'm writing a graphic memoir. I enjoy them a great deal. Is there a list of what the short cut keys will do for every tool, e.g. cntrl shift does changes to another tool while in ? All of them have so many of these that I find I wish there was a list somewhere. Are those all the same for Illustrator and InDesign too? Is there a way to take an image I create in Illustrator, e.g. cartoon and make it look like a photo in photoshop? like with the filters or ?
how did you sample the layer (im on pc)
Nice work Brush tool is God Thank you ☺
+chidamber shindhe Thanks for watching!
Where can I find this Brush? I've searched everywhere in PS last version but couldn't find. Someone pleaseee help
Go to :- edit > toolbar > mixer brush Will be on right hand side now drag and drop to the left side it will be available then after
How create this mixed brush in adobe illustrator?
God Bless all of you🙏🏽❤️
Thank you so much, great tutorial!
Thank you! 👌
Thank you a lot!
Wow! Time to give my mother-in-law's picture some brush strokes.
+My Space Lol

This brush is awesome
Thank you sir
Hyvä, selkeä esitys siveltimestä! Kiitos1

+Christina Testana Thanks, Christina! Photoshop is the bomb.
You're welcome! It sure is!!!!!

Option instead of Alt on a Mac.
(I do realize that this comment is 2 years old, but perhaps this helps someone else who is having the same problem.)
@@bee_irl thank you
thank u
image link doesnt work.please update it. nice tutorial..great job...
I'm your biggest fan ...
you have to uncheck load solid colors only
thank you thank you thank you....I can't tell you how long I've been trying to figure that out!
Omg thank you!
Like a lot of people i have never used this before so awesome. At he risk of sounding like a modern young woman " i literally cannot even" so cool. LOL
+Blaine Conners Haha. I kinda did the same thing when I first learned about this!
Great! It is similar to corel painter tools, right?
+Jacek Poplawski I've never used Corel. I'm not sure. Glad you enjoyed the tutorial though!
HOW DO I TURN IT OFF IT BROKE MY BRUSHES:(
3:12 , i can't change :( help me
I had same issue, I found out that in the top bar, if you click in the arrow next to the tool, it gives you options like Airbrush, pencil, etc... if you choose the cotton blender it's basically the same as the usual brushes and it gives you the option to do that by clicking alt.
thanks heaps!
Thanks!
oh
my
god
how did i just never see this under the brush
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John 14:15 KJV
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
Exodus 20:8-9 KJV
Saturday is the day of the Lord
The claim that Christ by his death abolished his Father’s law, is without foundation. Had it been possible for the law to be changed or set aside, then Christ need not have died to save man from the penalty of sin. The death of Christ, so far from abolishing the law, proves that it is immutable. The Son of God came to “magnify the law, and make it honorable.” [Isaiah 42:21.] He said, “Think not that I am come to destroy the law;” “till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in nowise pass from the law.” [Matthew 5:17, 18.] And concerning himself he declares, “I delight to do thy will, O my God; yea, thy law is within my heart.” [Psalm 40:8.] GC88 466.3
Ecclesiastes 12:13 KJV
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

I lik spaghetti 🍝
you never talked about the "wet" setting
Can you buy a pop filter please...
+Killertom63 I have one. I try to stop using the letter "P" instead ;)
I'll look into the popping and see if I have make it better. Thanks for the heads up!
Hmm weird. xD Ok :)
I am a chemical engineer... And I can't do anything with this tool. For me it is a mess.
thats gotta be a modified boognish.....hmm
"regular old, regular old brush"
That fancy stuff is useless. You won't use these "insane" possibilities in real photography if you are not the artist. The main feature of MB tool is to mix the hues and to create smooth gradients. You can use it in Frequency Splitting on low frequency to change light and shadows distribution on any object - the main illusion that do photography looks like 3d objects on a flat surface. Uncheck first two buttons, set all settings to 20% and try it out.
