In this article I compiled a list of high quality and professional abstract brushes that I found very useful either in web, wallpaper or even print design. The brushes are mainly for Photoshop but some of the brush creators have provided other formats of the brushes in PNG or for Gimp. The brushes licenses range from free for personal use only to free for both personal and commercial use as well, you might want to check the license before starting to use the brush or even consider contacting the author for permission.
