Thanks for watching!
I've tried this and I was not satified with the result because the edges of the watercolor texture were to defined. So after I rasterised it, I feathered it a bit via effects > stylize > feather... Just a few pixels were enough to make it better :)
Love love love this tute! Was just working on a project the other day and found myself thinking, "I wish I had some watercolour brushes in Illustrator..." and here you are with this tute. Can't wait to try this!
I usually don't comment on youtube videos but I just want to say, thank you sooooooo much. I'm going through portfolio week at school and I was manually painting for a project that I had to redo, and with all the stress I couldn't make anything I was pleased with. You have saved me so much time and have made my packaging project look so much cooler!! I love you lol!
Daniella Jerez you're welcome :)
Were you able to figure this out?
Omg this is so easy... I had an idea to make one - but never really made one so I was a bit clueless and expecting it to be pretty difficult, but it's actually pretty easy...
Wow! I know I am a little late discovering this (and you), but you have just changed my life! Thank you for this tutorial!
love your videos! thanks for touching on some of the new capabilities in CC I haven't had the chance to really explore. Can't wait to use this!
Subscribed! Been following tutorial videos since High School lol. Your channel seems chill, easy to follow. At first I thought it was a little fast but then I noticed you revert back for quick reviews over small settings. Thanks for keepin' real and not being all robot like hahaha Looks like a i have a ton of new videos to watch!
Thanks for the sub + checking the vids out!
Love love LOVE your channel! I just stumbled upon it today and I'm so glad I did! Your tutorials are so informative!
Thanks so much teela! I really enjoy your tutorials every time and learn so much! ...i like tuesdays ;) All the best to you! Romy (from Germany)
Ahh so much time saved! Amazing, thank you! The colours are great and work so well. Yep definitely have to vectorise image first
Me super fue de ayuda este tutorial! Esta muy claro.
Does rasterizing the image make this not a vector brush or is it still a vector brush?
That is awsome, thank you for such a great work.
Chapeau! Thanks for this wonderful Texture Kit.
You are beautiful and this tutorial was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks Teela!
amazing. bought the pack straight away. Perfect for what I needed
This is veeery helpful. Thank you. Can i change the colour of a coloured brush?
Very powerful, thanks for the tips !
awesome teela, been learning so much from your tuts. Love.
hmmm, wondering if there is a way to do this so that I can then make the painted brush stroke a certain color from my swatches? I thought if my watercolor texture was converted to grayscale, that it might work, but that wasn't enough.
Hi I want the water color set 3 but have a question will these work with a calligraphy brush?
Hi Teela, so i've bought these from the link provided... tryyying to use them and do as instructed but it keeps telling me ( The selected art work contains an element that cannot be used in an art brush ) please help lol!
Hi Teela! Loved your tutorial, and water-colors! I want to use the kit to make a banner background for my website, it is for a my business, but only for design purposes (not putting colors on anything to sell).
Hey! You'll need to pick up the extended license for any use within a business 👍
@@EveryTuesday Thanks :) Thinks it's possible to work your brushes and pallet of water colors in Adobe After Affects CC?
How to make these colors together
This is awesome. Highly appreciated!
What if I want a gradient on my watercolor brush and to be able to change the color of the gradient while still keeping the path editable?
hey can you do a tutorial on 3d rendered paint strokes? It would be a great help btw great tutorial
is there a way to draw / paint with these brushes but see the results live like when we use the regular brushes? With these brushes you draw first and see the results after you drew. I was wondering if there was a way around that
so beautiful! I loved it!
Juliana she so beautiful
Is there a way to make 2 different watercolors look like they are bleeding into each other?
really helpful...but how do we add the gradient effect to the stroke?
This tutorial helped me a bit, but I have a problem of when I go to use the brush, it puts a background as part of the stroke. I have everything set to transparent, and I'm using PNG files, so I'm not sure what I did wrong. It basically looks like a white rectangle with the watercolor inside but that's the "stroke" that is made when I use the brush... any tips and help would be so much appreciated!!
Where can I get the texture brushes? Did you make it in photoshop before and save as PNG?
Amazing! Pls keep doing videos like this! Have you tried any other textures etc.?
Every time I try to create the brush it tells me "The selected artwork contains an element that cannot be used in an art brush". I have followed all the steps... what am I doing wrong? pls help!
I have the same issue
watch this first cause u have to vectorise your water color image

Hi and thank you very much for this great tutorial. One question - every time I rasterize it totally looses quality --> it gets pixelated. Can you maybe tell me why and what to do against it?
How can you make the end of the stroke with a fading effect? Do you have a tutorial for that? Please?
thank you for thise tutorial . . i have a question . .that strock or brush will be vector or raster?
Hi, I was wondering how you control the brush strokes? Every time I use a watercolour texture, and I want a curvy or straight brush stroke, the stroke I get is frenzied, or wild or presented the way I don't want it. do you know how to create brush strokes created in my control? PLEASE HELP!! I have an assignment for school due really soon and it would help me a lot for you to give me instructions if you can.
great video
thank you that's so useful :D I love it
Thank you so much for this!
i love that thanks
Am I allowed to use one of these for commercial uses?
thank you so much for sharing
thank you
Hey Teela, would you mind sharing what can we do with watercolor brushes in Ilustrator? I'm more familiar with using watercolor brushes in Photoshop. I've tried painting but it often makes the file too large and I can't think of any way to blend them.
Wow!Thank you so much! :)
Hi Teela,
How do you set your document to show only the one black outer line. I have this and two green lines which I find quite annoying.
Thank you!
New subscriber here. I just want to thank you, before I knew of your video's I thought I was badly great at Illustrator, now I feel like a noob. Thanks a lot Teela! :P Jk
Your videos are awesome!
Best tutorial..
Did you create the watercolor texture kit using watercolor painting techniques and paper, scan them in and clip them in photoshop... I'm looking for the creation of the bushes... the step before this the creation of the textures - Thanks, Andi
Hey! I made a course that shows all the steps of that process here: skl.sh/2kBuCt2
where and how can these brushes be used?? ( I am new to illustrator)
hi teela! love the tutorial. one question though. can we change the stroke color?
nevermind. saw your tutorial about it. these are just awesome. thanks so much teela!
thanks for saving my life homes
Hello. I bought the pack. Did everything like in the video. but there is the message , the selected artwork contains an element rhat can not be used in an art brush. Can someone help me?
Hey! You'll have to be on Illustrator CC 👍
Thanks
add a collors?
thanks Teela I have the same problem as Morgan Field, I cant afford cc as am retired now
Hey Sue! I understand - all of my other tutorials are suitable for older versions, though I still think it's important to drop one in from time to time to stay current with new capabilities that become available :)
I'm using Ai CC 2018 and I'm having problem importing your watercolor kit3 after purchasing. Wether I try with .psd or wether I try with .png file it tells me "unknown format. cannot be used". Is because of my Ai CC version? HELP!!!
Hey! You should be able to do file > place and since they're image files, they'll work the same as any other image file. Try restarting Illustrator if you're still having trouble - I use them with Ai CC all the time!
Gracias,eres genia!!
Hi-- thank you! I have been able to create the brushes. I can only afford one program so am using newest version of Illustrator. Any way to change the coloring of these brushes in Illustrator? I bought the watercolor 3 kit but now don't know what to do! Basically I just want to be able to set them to colors that I want and make circular shapes for buttons on my site
You would have to recolor the textures in Photoshop first (here's a tutorial: every-tuesday.com/change-watercolor-texture-specific-color/) since it's an image instead of a vector (to keep file sizes reasonable). You could convert the brush to vector if you've got a computer that could handle the extra memory it'll require (here's a tutorial: every-tuesday.com/how-to-vectorize-watercolor-textures/) and then use the color guide in Illustrator to change its colors if you wanted another option (though the photoshop option will be easiest to work with)
WOW so preety ♥I think it would be really useful if we used it well.
I have been trying to get this to work for days now, but it keeps telling me that the selected artworks contains an element that cannot be used in an artbrush. I am placing a transparent background small png watercolour onto my document, and that is the error message. can you please help me, as I really want to make this brush, thank you
I'm having the same exact problem. I'm using CS2 and I tried with a PS document and a PNG file, both with a transparent background and after going through the procedure I get that awful message that reads the selected artwork contains an element that cannot be used in an art brush. It only worked when I used Live Trace on the brush stroke which in this tutorial was not used.
Hey - you'll have to be on CC for it to work. I realized after the vid was already uploaded it was a new feature to CC, so it was too late to add it into the vid - apologies!
Thanks so much, Teela, for solving the confusion for all of us. I love the advancements that Adobe keeps making but it's so hard for me to get access to the newer versions. I love graphics so much but the limitsto my creativity because of money drives me crazy...same goes with photography which I also use in my graphics work. I'd appreciate anything you can do to help us work around these limits with the older versions.
I understand - literally all of my other tutorials work with other versions, though I still think it's important to point out features that may be game changers for those who are unsure of upgrading :)
Thanks for your understanding and I very much understand your wish to keep up with the latest improvements and share your knowledge about it. Just like you can't stop a clock, you can't stop constant improvements. :)
Hiya, each time i try this my brush has a white background even though I make sure that I'm using a transparent texture. I follow your instruction making sure that I rasterise with the transparent clicked in the dialogue box. Please can anyone offer some guidance? many thanks.
Hey - is your original texture a transparent png file? If you don't have an image with a transparent background to begin with, even with transparency settings checked, you'll still get a white background
Teela Cunningham hiya thank you for your reply I really appreciate it. I'm so certain the prepared texture I had done in photoshop was without a background but I could be wrong. Do you have a tutorial for preparing a texture in photoshop first without a background so that it can be opened in illustrator to vectorised? Thanks again I love your tutorials and your positive enthusiasm x
Very nice tip, Thanks! ^_^
so how do I get these watercolor textures, do I need to pay for them ...
There are a couple free ones in my resource library (every-tuesday.com/resource-library/) and others available for purchase (every-tuesday.com/products/) 👍
thanks :D
Hi, I've bought the texture kit 3 - however when i try to load it into Illustrator i get this message " patterns .pat is an unknown format and cannot be imported - I'm new to Illustrator and are probably doing something wrong
I'm using CC - so should be fine?
I've worked it out
Same thing here with "the selected artwork contains an element..." message. I'm on CS5 I wonder why it won't let me make it an art brush? It let's me make it a calligraphy brush but that's no good! Grrrrr
Hey - you'll have to be on CC in order for it to work, I realized once the vid was already uploaded it was a new feature to CC, so I couldn't add that in - apologize!
no it works very well on Illustrator CS so it's not about CC.
nice :)
The Skillshare link doesn’t work for me :-/ is the course gone?
It's still there - here's the link again: skl.sh/2kBuCt2
ah it worked on my desktop. such a helpful class, thank you!
Thank you for the tutorial. Btw, You sound like America Ferrera. It's uncanny.
super super
Why don’t you say it’s a paid service?
For Adobe Illustrator? It's professional software and Adobe is well known for not being free...
