brush size

Painting tool width

Brush size is the width or diameter of a brush tip, determining how broad a stroke it produces.

In digital art and photo editing software, brush size is a fundamental setting that controls line thickness: Increase the brush size for filling large areas.

Physical brushes are similarly categorized by size numbers, with larger numbers typically indicating wider brushes.
