Step Two:
               Now, get the Brush tool (B) from the Toolbar, and then open the Brushes panel (you can open it by choosing it from the Window menu). You’ll find a
               number of different sets of brushes here and the one we’re looking for is in the Special Effects Brushes folder. Look inside that folder, and you’ll find the
               “Kyle’s Spatter Brushes - Spatter Bot Tilt (Brush Tool)” brush (shown selected here. Look for a special effects brush whose size is 284 pixels and that will

               —nearly 10 times the default size). Press the letter D on your keyboard, then X, to set your Foreground color to white, and then click on your image, hold
               your mouse button down for a couple of seconds, and it will paint a spattering of different-sized spots, like you see here. Or, you can click a few times—
               doesn’t matter—we just want a bunch of different-sized spots. That’s what we’re looking for (and, by the way, this isn’t the only brush that will work for
