I am here to share some tips on photoshop today, to be specific, I will share how to make a silk ribbon like shape that is used a lot in website design.
1. Create a blank document. I created a 500 px by 500 px one, but it doesn’t really matter.
2. Use Pen Tool to create two paths. Then you need to create a new layer then use these two paths to have a stroke. Like this:
3. Deselect the path and select the layer where your stroke is. Then choose “Edit” in the tool bar and choose “Define Brush Preset”.
4. Name your brush preset and remember it since we are going to need it soon.
5. Delete the layer you have your stoke on. Create a layer and fill with black. (This is just personal preference.
)
Click the Brush tool box on the right panel.

Set your brush setting similar to what I did above. (I hope you will get similar outputs.
).
Finally, you can use your brush to play around, here is what I get.
If you have any good suggestions, please let me know and I can update this tutorial based on feedbacks.
