Brush Bristle Qualities. Brush Tips Shapes.

Hello 🙂 

Today I installed the photoshop update.

In my brush settings, I cannot find the "Bristle Qualities" option.

It is not under "Size" on the right hand side of the panel.

I am trying to taper my brush strokes at the beginning and end, as it looks like in the sample.

Mine are the same pressure throughout. 😞

Can Bristle Options help with this? 

Hoping someone can give me advice on how to achieve the look of the sample brush stroke.

Thank you!
