Creating and managing preset brushes (Photoshop)After you customize a brush, you can save it as a preset brush. Preset brushes appear in the Brushes palette, Brush pop-up palette in the options bar, and Preset Manager. You can create libraries of preset brushes, rename preset brushes, and delete preset brushes. Note: New preset brushes are saved in a Preferences file so that they persist between editing sessions.
