the definitive tutorial on the Art History Brush. It changed my AHB life. The author, Joe Martin, is an AHB deity and a first-rate artist whose work is remarkable for its profound sensitivity to the subject matter. The tute includes some of his nifty brushes.

I can't recommend this tutorial highly enough. Really.

Looks like a good one there. Pity the brush presets link doesn't work.
If you've got them and its OK to share, could you post them here as a zip file????

Love them all, but Peter, this is just amazing! the way it looks so oldie worldy, it fits the subject spot on....And yea I wish the link in Joe's tute worked, it just isn't on the web at all, unless someone knows different.

Peter, I tried to attach the brush presets but, alas, the .zip file is too big.

I see, though, that Patricia has kindly offered to email them to anyone who wants them. Thanks, Patricia.

Trimoon has some good AH brushes, too, by the way.

I am new here and don't have your guys knowledge, but I believe I can appreciate nice art.
The original picture you posted had nothing special in itself, but what you have done with it is just outstanding.

yes, i have photoshop now, but have barely even opened it. lots of other things i'm currently studying and too many pots on the stove tends to get nothing cooking.
