Brush Tool

Brush Tool

• A. Paints soft strokes of color using the foreground color
• B. Paints hard-edged strokes using the foreground color
• C. Erases content
• D. Fills with foreground color

Answer: (A)

The Brush Tool is used to paint color onto an image using the foreground color. It applies color in strokes, and the edges can be soft or hard depending on the brush tip and settings, which is why soft-edged strokes are a common and general description. Erasing content is done with the Eraser tool, not painting, and filling an area with the foreground color is what the Paint Bucket tool does. So, the Brush Tool’s core action is to lay down color in strokes with the foreground color, which aligns with the described option.
