The Awesome Mixer Brush in Photoshop! 

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.

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 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.

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.

I was looking for this video all morning… thank you SO MUCH ♥️

I always feel wow for this mixer brush!

I wish I knew about the 'Mixer Brush Tool' earlier. Thank you sir.

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! ♥

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

The video I've been looking for! THANKS!

thanks for this vid, great pace and delivery, perfect !

This is really a excellent tuts.. i never knew this being a retoucher. I really appreciate for sharing wonderful tip..

Awesome videos man! Gonna have to binge all of them at some point! :D

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!

crisp and very informative video, Thanks for sharing

So awesome, I didn't even know it was there! Thank you

Thank you so much! Very helpful video! Short and concise.

excelent tutorial, brief and to the point, thanks!

it's really impressive! thank you for your tuts! you are the BOMB.

thank you, that alt key is the trick I'm looking for.

Love this, this was so helpful thnk you! :)

Thank you for response back. Keep up with the good tutorial's .

can you show how to sampling whole texture when using mixer brush, when I press alt it just pick the color

Wow! It's so cool! I didn't know that I can do that with the brushes on Photoshop, great tutorial!

thats a cool tool, I really need to catch up on photoshop CC

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?

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 ?

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?!

get it. got it. good!

Nice and very helpful

5:41 Me when I take my glasses off.

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, great tutorial!

Hyvä, selkeä esitys siveltimestä! Kiitos1

image link doesnt work.please update it. nice tutorial..great job...

This brush is awesome

SUPER UNDERSTANDING!!

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.

Wow! Time to give my mother-in-law's picture some brush strokes.

Great! It is similar to corel painter tools, right?

Nice video sir... thanks

one question how to combine layer with background images and combine all layers into one which keys? thanks

Nice work Brush tool is God Thank you ☺

Is there any way to emulate this mixer brush tool in CSP?

I'm your biggest fan ...

God Bless all of you🙏🏽❤️

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.

"regular old, regular old brush"

I am a chemical engineer... And I can't do anything with this tool. For me it is a mess.

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.
