|The 1st drawing tool is a pencil and it works with very hard edges. Here I have drawn a straight line and if I zoom into the image, you can see each pixel is either black or white.

|Back to the pencil here. You see the pencil is very sharp in the edges and paint brush is smooth. But you can't see here the jaggis. This is called trick of the eye. When I enlarge it you see it here its anti-aliest.

|Now let's start with the paint brush. Click on the paint brush tool in the tool box and you get the options for that.

|Here is the Opacity slider and by using this you control the visibility and the colour of the line. I slide the value to say 25% and now when I draw, I get a light grey line instead of black. And when I cross this line with a new line you can see that the colour gets stronger but it happen only if I go over it with a new line.

|I zoom into this part and select a bigger brush. And now when I draw a line its gray. And I draw a 2nd line and the intersection of these 2 lines is dark gray. And now I draw a 3rd line over here and intersection gets more darker gray but when I paint back with the same line it doesn’t get darker.
+
|But you can't see here the jaggies.

|So this works only from stroke to stroke and you can easily paint an area with gray and you don’t have to watch for carefully while filling this. Here you can see an option called Incremental .
+
| This is called trick of the eye.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−

+
| 01:47
−
|When you select Incremental, you get much stronger effect. Lets go to the options of the brushes and here you can see the spacing of this brush is set to 20%,

|Brushes is basically a stamp which stamps the same pattern on and on. And when I zoom in here you can see, after 20% of the size of the brush, there is a next impression of this brush. Here each brush overlays itself.

|When you de-select Incremental option you can see the each stamping of the brush, but there is no painting over and I have to start a second line. And when  incremental is selected, I can paint over and over.

 +
|Now, let's start with the paint brush.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 02:16
 +
|Click on the '''Paint brush''' tool in the tool box and you get the options for that.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 02:25
 +
| The '''Modes''' are just the same as in the layer modes as you can see here '''Multiply''' or '''Overlay''' and so on.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 02:40
 +
|Here is the '''Opacity''' slider and by using this you can control the visibility and the colour of the line.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 02:50
 +
|I slide the value to say 25% and now when I draw, I get a light grey line instead of black.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 03:02
 +
|And when I cross this line with a new line you can see that the colour gets stronger but it only happens if I go over it with a new line.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
|03:22
 +
| I zoom into this part and select a bigger '''Brush'''.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
|03:26
 +
|  And now when I draw a line, it's gray.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
|03:30
 +
|  And I draw a second line and the intersection of these two lines is dark gray.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
|03:36
 +
|  And now, I draw a third line over here and intersection gets more darker gray but when I paint back with the same line it doesn’t get darker.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
|03:48
 +
|So, this works only from stroke to stroke and you can easily paint an area with gray and you don’t have to watch carefully while filling this.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
|04:15
 +
|Here you can see an option called '''Incremental''' .
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 04.20
 +
|When you select '''Incremental''', you get much stronger effect.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 04:29
 +
| Let's go to the options of the '''Brushes''' and here you can see the spacing of this brush is set to 20%.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 04:45
 +
|'''Brushes''' is basically a stamp which stamps the same pattern on and on. 
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 04:54
 +
|And when I zoom in here, you can see, after 20% of the size of the brush, there is a next impression of this brush.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 05:07
 +
|Here each brush overlays itself.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 05:19
 +
|When you de-select '''Incremental''' option, you can see each stamping of the brush but there is no painting over and I have to start a second line.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 05:34
 +
|And when I select '''Incremental''', I can paint over and over.
 +
 
 +
|-
 +
| 05:47
 
|Go back to 100% .
 
|Go back to 100% .
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 05:53
 +
|I have covered '''Opacity''' and '''Incremental''' options.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 05:57
 +
| Let's go back with the opacity with 100% and I can draw again perfect black. 
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 06:07
 +
|'''Incremental''' is meaningful only if you have an opacity lower than 100%.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 06:15
 +
|'''Scale''' slider controls the size of the '''pen''' here and when I slide down to 1, you get a small size of the brush.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 06:31
 +
|When I scale the brush to say 0.05, I can draw a very fine line and I set the slider to say 2 and  I have a broad line.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 06:48
 +
| '''Scale''' basically controls the diameter of the brush and you can also control with the 'square brackets' on the keyboard.
 +
 +
|-
 +
|07:15
 +
|With the help of open square bracket, I can reduce the size of brush and with close square bracket, I can increase the size.
 +
 +
|-
 +
|07:32
 +
|You can see that the brush is nearly invisible.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 07:38
 +
|So, I can adjust the size of brush without leaving the area where I paint.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 07:51
 +
|If someone of the GIMP people are looking forward, I would love to have a button to get back the slider to 1.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 08:03
 +
|So, '''Scale''' option is covered.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 08:06
 +
|And I will cover the brush in detail in next tutorial.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 08:12
 +
|Here is an option called '''Pressure sensitivity''' and I can use it while editing the image. So,
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 08:30
 +
| let's have a look, here, at '''Opacity'''.
 +
 +
|-
 +
|08:35
 +
|Now, when I draw without a lot of pressure, you get a line which is gray in colour and when I increase the pressure I get a dark colour and when I decrease the pressure, I get a light coloured line.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 09:04
 +
|This option is useful if you are painting a mask.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 09:09
 +
| This is quite useful.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 09:17
 +
|Next option is '''Hardness'''.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 09:20
 +
|When I draw with not much pressure, there is a soft border and when I increase the pressure, the paint brush acts like a pen. 
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 09:38
 +
|When I select the pencil tool and draw, I get hard border and this can make a hard border if I really press on the tablet.   
 +
 +
|-
 +
|09:51
 +
| I can change the size of the brush with '''Pressure sensitivity'''.
 +
 +
|-
 +
|10:00
 +
|I can also change the colour using '''Pressure sensitivity'''.
 +
 +
|-
 +
|10:05
 +
| So, I select another colour from the '''background colour''', how  this one here?
 +
 +
|-
 +
|10:12
 +
| So, let's select this red colour.
 +
 +
|-
 +
|10:15
 +
|And for the '''foreground colour''', let's select a nice green.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 10:21
 +
|And when I start painting here with the selected colour, with low pressure I get green and when I am increasing the pressure I get red and if released, I get green or greenish stuff again.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 10:41
 +
|And in between the colour changes between green and red.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 10:49
 +
| The last option is using colour from the '''gradients'''.
 +
 +
|-
 +
| 11:01
 +
| To select the '''Gradients''', go to '''File, Dialogs''' and '''Gradients'''.
 +
 
|-
 
|-
−
|5:48
+
|11:18
−
|I have covered opacity and incremental options. Lets go back with the opacity with 100% and I can draw again perfect black.
+
|Here is the '''Gradients'''.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|6:04
+
|11:20
−
|Incremental is meaningful only if you have an opacity lower than 100%.
+
|And now I just grab this window and pull it to here and now I have a gradient here.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|6:12
+
| 11:28
−
|Scale slider controls the size of the pen here and when I slide down to 1, you get a small size of the brush.
+
| In '''Gradients''', I have a big selection of patterns.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|6:29
+
| 11:33
−
|When I scale the brush to say 0.05, I can draw a very fine line and I set the slider to say 2, I have a broad line. Scale basically controls the diameter of the bursh and you can also control with the square brackets on the keyboard.
+
|Let’s select this one and now I go back here.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|7:13
+
| 11:42
−
|With the help of open square bracket I can reduce the size of brush and with close square bracket I can increase the size.
+
| Now, when I am painting, the paint goes through this pattern on the gradient.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|7:29
+
| 11:48
−
|You can see that the brush is nearly invisible.
+
| It's quite funny for some things like writing or working with gradients.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|7:35
+
| 12:02
−
|So I can adjust the size of brush without leaving the area where I paint.
+
| It looks like made out of tube or so.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|7:49
+
| 12:07
−
|If someone of the GIMP people are looking forward, I would love to have a button to get back the slider to 1.
+
| These were the options of the '''gradient'''.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|8:00
+
| 12:11
−
|So scale option is covered. And i'll cover the brush in detail in next tutorial.
+
| These options are common for all the tools which use brushes.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|8:09
+
| 12:30
−
|Here is an option called pressure sensitivity and I can use it while editing the image. So lets have a look here at opacity.
+
| i.e,  '''Pencil''', the '''Paint brush''', the '''Eraser''' and the '''Airbrush''' which has some additional options.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|8:31
+
| 12:50
−
|Now when I draw without a lot of pressure, you get a line which is gray in colour and when I increase the pressure I get a dark colour and when I decrease the perssure I get a light coloured line.
+
|The '''Ink''' has no brush but it has lot of the other options.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|9:00
+
| 12:55
−
|This option is useful, if you are painting a mask. This is quite useful.
+
|The '''Clone''' tool, the '''Healing''' tool , the '''Perspective clone''' tool and even tools like '''Blur/sharpen''' or '''dodge/burn''' have the option of '''brushes'''.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|9:13
+
| 13:14
−
|Next option is hardness. When I draw with not much pressure, there is a soft border and when I increase the pressure, the paint brush acts like a pen.
+
|Now, let's go back to '''Pencil''' and '''Paint brush'''.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|9:34
+
| 13:21
−
|When I select the pencil tool and draw I get hard border and this can make a hard border if really press on the tablet.
+
|Just clear this again.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|9:47
+
| 13:24
−
|I can change the size of the brush with pressure sensitivity.
+
|There are some tricks which you can use here.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|9:56
+
| 13:29
−
|I can also change the colour using pressure sensitivity. So I select another colour for the background colour, how is this one here. So lets select this red colour.
+
|The first trick is about drawing a line.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|10:11
+
| 13:33
−
|And for the foreground lets select a nice green.
+
|When I try to draw a straight line its a bit difficult.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|10:17
+
| 13:39
−
|And when I start painting here with the selected colour, with low pressure I get green and when I am increasing the pressure I get red and If release I get green or greenish stuff again. And in between the colour changes between green and red.
+
|But when I first set one point with a click and press the '''shift''' key, I get a straight line.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|10:45
+
| 13:48
−
|The last option is using colour from the gradients.
+
|Here I have a straight line.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|10:58
+
| 13:51
−
|To select the gradent go  to File, Dialogs and Gradients.
+
| The next trick is, just set one point and press '''Shift + Ctrl''' and now the rotation of my line is locked to 15 degrees.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|11:15
+
| 14:05
−
|Here the gradient. And now I just grab this window and pull it to here and now I have a gradient here.
+
|And so I can draw easily straight lines with defined angles.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|11:25
+
| 14:20
−
|In gradient I have a big selection of patterns.
+
| So, what a master piece here.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|11:30
+
| 14:24
−
|Let’s select this one and now I go back here.
+
| There is something else that you can do with this '''Shift''' key.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|11:39
+
| 14:29
−
|Now when I am painting the paint goes through this pattern on the gradient. Its quite fun for some things like writing or work with gradients.
+
| For that, select the '''Gradient''' tool.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|11:59
+
| 14:37
−
|It looks like made out of tube or so.
+
|Draw a line with gradient selected and you get lot of different colours.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|12:04
+
| 14:45
−
|These were the options of the gradient. These options are common for all the tools which uses brushes i.e pencil, the paint brush, the eraser and the airbrush which has some additional options.
+
| I select a small '''Brush''' and de-select the '''Gradient''' tool and select my standard colours.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|12:44
+
| 14:55
−
|The Ink has no brush but it has lot of the other options. The Clone tool, the Healing tool and the Perspective clone tool and even tools like blur/ sharpen or Smudge and dodge and burn has the option of brushes. Now lets go back to pencil and paint brush.
+
|Now, when I press the '''Ctrl''' key, I can select a colour from the line I had drawn and you can see, the '''foreground colour''' is changed to the blue tone.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|13:19
+
| 15:09
−
|Just clear this again. There are some tricks which you can use here.
+
|So, I can pick a colour, somewhere out of the image which is quite nice.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|13:27
+
| 15:17
−
|the 1st trick is about drawing a line. When I try to draw a straight line its a bit difficult. But when I 1st set one point with a click and press the shift key, I get a straight line. Here I have a straight line. The next trick is, just set a point and press Shift + Ctrl and now the rotation of my line is locked to 15 degree. And so I can draw easily straight lines with defined angles.
+
|And if you want to paint in something in a picture and it has the colour you need.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|14:18
+
| 15:25
−
|So what a master piece here.
+
|Just '''Ctrl''' click on it and you have that specific colour on your pallet.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|14:24
+
| 15:36
−
|There is something else that you can do with this Shift key. For that select the gradient tool.
+
| That is a nice trick.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|14:37
+
| 15:39
−
|Draw a line with gradient select and you get lots of different colours. I select a smaller brush and de-select the gradient tool and select my standard colours. Now when I press the Ctrl key, I can select a colour from the line I had drawn and you can see, the foreground color is changed to the blue tone.
+
| Basically the '''Eraser''' tool is the same tool as the '''pen''' or the '''Brush''' because it's just the opposite of them.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|15:07
+
| 15:52
−
|So I can pick a colour, somewhere out of the image which is quite nice. And if you want to paint in something in a picture and it has the colour you need. Just ctrl click on it and you have that specific colour on your palet.
+
| The '''Eraser''' also paints but it gives the background color.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|15:34
+
| 15:57
−
|That is a nice trick. Basically the eraser tool is the same tool as the pen or the brush because its just the opposite of them.
+
| You can see it here.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|15:50
+
| 16:00
−
|The eraser also paints but it give back the background color. You can see it here. But for that you should de-select the brush sensitivity and opacity.
+
| But, for that, you should de-select the '''Pressure  sensitivity''' and '''Opacity'''.  
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|16:06
+
| 16:08
−
|When I just switch the foreground and back ground colour to black and white and switch white as the foreground colour and select the pen, I can get the same effect as the eraser. After changing the colour erasing gets black.
+
| When I just switch the '''Foreground colour''' and the '''Background colour''' to black and white and switch white as the foreground colour and select the '''Pen''', I can get the same effect as the '''Eraser'''.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|16:39
+
| 16:25
−
|You can change the foreground and back ground colour by pressing the X key.
+
| After changing the colour erasing gets black.
 +
 
 
|-
 
|-
−
|16:48
+
| 16:41
−
|I have that I have covered the pencil, the paint brush and also the eraser in detail.

Time Narration
00:23 Welcome to Meet The GIMP. My name is Rolf Steinort and I am recording this in Bremen, Northern Germany.
00:30 In this tutorial, I will explain you the drawing tools in detail.
00:37 The first drawing tool is Pencil and it works with very hard edges.
00:44 Here I have drawn a straight line and if I zoom into the image, you can see each pixel is either black or white.
01:01 When I select the paint brush for drawing, I get a line which has soft edges.
01:08 And when I switch back to zoom, you can see a hard line with visible jaggies when drawn with pencil.
01:17 And when I draw with paint brush I get a soft line.
01:29 Back to the pencil here.
01:32 You see the pencil is very sharp in the edges and paint brush is smooth.
01:40 But you can't see here the jaggies.
01:44 This is called trick of the eye.
01:47 When I enlarge it, you see it here, it's anti-aliased.
01:53 This is the main difference between the pencil and the paint brush.
01:59 Otherwise they are nearly equal and their options too.
02:13 Now, let's start with the paint brush.
02:16 Click on the Paint brush tool in the tool box and you get the options for that.
02:25 The Modes are just the same as in the layer modes as you can see here Multiply or Overlay and so on.
02:40 Here is the Opacity slider and by using this you can control the visibility and the colour of the line.
02:50 I slide the value to say 25% and now when I draw, I get a light grey line instead of black.
03:02 And when I cross this line with a new line you can see that the colour gets stronger but it only happens if I go over it with a new line.
03:22 I zoom into this part and select a bigger Brush.
03:26 And now when I draw a line, it's gray.
03:30 And I draw a second line and the intersection of these two lines is dark gray.
03:36 And now, I draw a third line over here and intersection gets more darker gray but when I paint back with the same line it doesn’t get darker.
03:48 So, this works only from stroke to stroke and you can easily paint an area with gray and you don’t have to watch carefully while filling this.
04:15 Here you can see an option called Incremental .
04.20 When you select Incremental, you get much stronger effect.
04:29 Let's go to the options of the Brushes and here you can see the spacing of this brush is set to 20%.
04:45 Brushes is basically a stamp which stamps the same pattern on and on.
04:54 And when I zoom in here, you can see, after 20% of the size of the brush, there is a next impression of this brush.
05:07 Here each brush overlays itself.
05:19 When you de-select Incremental option, you can see each stamping of the brush but there is no painting over and I have to start a second line.
05:34 And when I select Incremental, I can paint over and over.
05:47 Go back to 100% .
05:53 I have covered Opacity and Incremental options.
05:57 Let's go back with the opacity with 100% and I can draw again perfect black.
06:07 Incremental is meaningful only if you have an opacity lower than 100%.
06:15 Scale slider controls the size of the pen here and when I slide down to 1, you get a small size of the brush.
06:31 When I scale the brush to say 0.05, I can draw a very fine line and I set the slider to say 2 and I have a broad line.
06:48 Scale basically controls the diameter of the brush and you can also control with the 'square brackets' on the keyboard.
07:15 With the help of open square bracket, I can reduce the size of brush and with close square bracket, I can increase the size.
07:32 You can see that the brush is nearly invisible.
07:38 So, I can adjust the size of brush without leaving the area where I paint.
07:51 If someone of the GIMP people are looking forward, I would love to have a button to get back the slider to 1.
08:03 So, Scale option is covered.
08:06 And I will cover the brush in detail in next tutorial.
08:12 Here is an option called Pressure sensitivity and I can use it while editing the image. So,
08:30 let's have a look, here, at Opacity.
08:35 Now, when I draw without a lot of pressure, you get a line which is gray in colour and when I increase the pressure I get a dark colour and when I decrease the pressure, I get a light coloured line.
09:04 This option is useful if you are painting a mask.
09:09 This is quite useful.
09:17 Next option is Hardness.
09:20 When I draw with not much pressure, there is a soft border and when I increase the pressure, the paint brush acts like a pen.
09:38 When I select the pencil tool and draw, I get hard border and this can make a hard border if I really press on the tablet.
09:51 I can change the size of the brush with Pressure sensitivity.
10:00 I can also change the colour using Pressure sensitivity.
10:05 So, I select another colour from the background colour, how this one here?
10:12 So, let's select this red colour.
10:15 And for the foreground colour, let's select a nice green.
10:21 And when I start painting here with the selected colour, with low pressure I get green and when I am increasing the pressure I get red and if released, I get green or greenish stuff again.
10:41 And in between the colour changes between green and red.
10:49 The last option is using colour from the gradients.
11:01 To select the Gradients, go to File, Dialogs and Gradients.
11:18 Here is the Gradients.
11:20 And now I just grab this window and pull it to here and now I have a gradient here.
11:28 In Gradients, I have a big selection of patterns.
11:33 Let’s select this one and now I go back here.
11:42 Now, when I am painting, the paint goes through this pattern on the gradient.
11:48 It's quite funny for some things like writing or working with gradients.
12:02 It looks like made out of tube or so.
12:07 These were the options of the gradient.
12:11 These options are common for all the tools which use brushes.
12:30 i.e, Pencil, the Paint brush, the Eraser and the Airbrush which has some additional options.
12:50 The Ink has no brush but it has lot of the other options.
12:55 The Clone tool, the Healing tool , the Perspective clone tool and even tools like Blur/sharpen or dodge/burn have the option of brushes.
13:14 Now, let's go back to Pencil and Paint brush.
13:21 Just clear this again.
13:24 There are some tricks which you can use here.
13:29 The first trick is about drawing a line.
13:33 When I try to draw a straight line its a bit difficult.
13:39 But when I first set one point with a click and press the shift key, I get a straight line.
13:48 Here I have a straight line.
13:51 The next trick is, just set one point and press Shift + Ctrl and now the rotation of my line is locked to 15 degrees.
14:05 And so I can draw easily straight lines with defined angles.
14:20 So, what a master piece here.
14:24 There is something else that you can do with this Shift key.
14:29 For that, select the Gradient tool.
14:37 Draw a line with gradient selected and you get lot of different colours.
14:45 I select a small Brush and de-select the Gradient tool and select my standard colours.
14:55 Now, when I press the Ctrl key, I can select a colour from the line I had drawn and you can see, the foreground colour is changed to the blue tone.
15:09 So, I can pick a colour, somewhere out of the image which is quite nice.
15:17 And if you want to paint in something in a picture and it has the colour you need.
15:25 Just Ctrl click on it and you have that specific colour on your pallet.
15:36 That is a nice trick.
15:39 Basically the Eraser tool is the same tool as the pen or the Brush because it's just the opposite of them.
15:52 The Eraser also paints but it gives the background color.
15:57 You can see it here.
16:00 But, for that, you should de-select the Pressure sensitivity and Opacity.
16:08 When I just switch the Foreground colour and the Background colour to black and white and switch white as the foreground colour and select the Pen, I can get the same effect as the Eraser.
16:25 After changing the colour erasing gets black.
16:41 You can change the Foreground and Background Colour by pressing the X key.
16:50 I have covered the Pencil, the Paint brush and also the Eraser in detail.
