Creating a Simple Fractal Shape
In this tutorials we’ll learn how to ceate a simple fractal shape that you can use later in other applications.

First, open a new document, 500×500px, and select a 5px soft brush. Fill the background with black (#000000). Next, select the Pen Tool, and select “Paths”.
 

Next, make a fractal design with the Pen Tool, similar to the one shown. You can really be creative with the type of shape you make.

Now make your foreground color white (#FFFFFF) by pressing “X”. Then, click the “Paths” tab.
 

Now right-click the Work Path shown in the “Paths” tab and select “Stroke Path”. Check “Stimulate Pressure” and click “OK”.

Finally, delete the path you just stroked.

And you’re done! You can use this technique in many different ways, try experimenting! Enjoy!
