Over 300 Swirls Photoshop Brushes Free to Use
Using brushes in Photoshop is a real time-saver for designers. Now, you can easily create effects such as “grunge”, “swirls”, “floral” effects by using brushes. If you want a unique and customized brush, you may go ahead and create your own brush using Photoshop. However, if you are pressed for time, then you may just use the available free Photoshop brushes that you can download online. But where can you find these Photoshop brushes?
This is actually the third batch of brushes that I have posted so far in this blog. The first batch included grunge brush sets while the second batch contained fractal and abstract light brushes.
Here, I am going to share with you the best swirl photoshop brush sets from various websites. Most of these high-quality swirl Photoshop brushes are free to use for non-commercial work. Also, I decided to include links to the authors’ sites so you could check the details of these packs of brushes and the terms of use. Do not forget to thank them, okay?
(In case, you need a tutorial on how to install brushes in your Photoshop program, check out first my basic Photoshop tutorial on how to get them working in Photoshop 7 and CS+)

Hey there! Thanks so much for mentioning a few of my brushes. I appreciate it. Just one request, though. In my terms of use, I require that you link back to my website for downloads, rather than hotlinking. Could you fix that for the several sets you’ve mentioned here? I’d appreciate it! That way, people can find out my info on terms of use and commercial licenses (which is how I make my living).
Thanks!
