In Illustrator, you can change brush settings to change the way your brushes work. Here are some tips on how to do this:

  1. Choose a brush type. There are three types of brushes in Illustrator: hard, soft, and vector. Hard brushes are more aggressive and can be used for detailed work; soft brushes are more gentle and can be used for basic tasks such as filling in shapes or adding highlights.
  2. Change the size of your brushstrokes. When you’re creating illustrations, it’s important to keep the size of your brushstrokes in mind so that they look evenly spaced out when displayed on the screen. You can change the size of your brushstrokes by choosing File > New > Brush Size… or by pressing Command+N (Windows) or Option+N (Mac). The default size is 8 pixels wide by 16 pixels high.
  3. Use a blending mode. When you’re working with colors, it’s important to use a blending mode so that your colors look consistent when displayed on the screen. You can choose one of several modes: additive (adds color together), subtractive (removes color from objects), or luminosity (changes how bright or dark an object is).
