When you open up the brush tool, you will be presented with some brush settings that allow you to change the brush size, styles and opacity. Bear in mind that it is not advisable to compare traditional brush settings with that of digital. The digital settings can be tailored in much the same way that traditional artists draw but the comparison stops there. It would be incorrect to emulate the traditional brush tools since this would only constrain the types of configurations that are possible with digital.

From the settings you can vary the brush size, choose the brush style and change its flow rate characteristics by adjusting density and hardness. There are many combinations of this but it would be best for you to experiment with the settings and just try for yourself.
