Everyday Sketch Photoshop Brushes
About the product
Sketching is where art starts. A rough idea, a silhouette, a line you almost erased — it’s all essential. So we thought, why not make sketching a stand-alone way to express yourself, with every possible tool? Once again, we’ve teamed up with Olga Lysenkova to create a set of sketch brushes that do it all — in all styles, from raw pencil to watery paint stains.
“There was no way to go flashy. Not with sketchers. I wanted this set functional and multipurpose, just like sketching is for all kinds of creators. Fashion, lifestyle, travel, quick portraits, caricatures, cartoons — they all need a special approach. That’s what we went for.”
The toolbox instantly proves functional, focused, and versatile. It covers the groundwork of creative thinking: from fashion illustration to travel journals, character design, doodles, and storyboards. It's deliberately broad, yet tightly curated for sketch work.
The brushes are organized into five core tools: pens, markers, coal, pencils, and paper — each capturing how real-world sketching feels, across different genres and styles:
Pens
Deliver sharp, defined lines for inking, fashion outlines, and stylized portraits.
Markers
Lay down fluid, expressive strokes. Great for gesture drawing and quick color accents
Coal brushes
Bring pressure-sensitive smudge and grit. Ideal for moodier sketches and exaggerated forms.
Pencils
Handle everything from confident figure drafts to loose character doodles, with options for softer or grainier finishes.
Paper texture brushes
Add a tactile layer underneath it all, grounding the sketch.

Each tool is made to feel like its real-world counterpart: pens for sharp outlines, markers for fluid motion, coal for textured smudges, pencils for versatile drafting, and paper brushes for extra grain underneath.

Yes — that’s the point. The set is built for everyday use across illustration genres. It’s great for storyboarding, character design, lifestyle art, book visuals, or anything that starts with a sketch.

Both. The set is compatible with Photoshop, Procreate, Affinity, and Clip Studio Paint. Illustrator users get a dedicated version with vector-friendly Art and Scatter Brushes.

You’ll need a drawing tablet (iPad + Apple Pencil, Wacom, etc.) and compatible software. The brushes are pressure-sensitive and respond naturally to stylus input.
