On a Mac within the Accessibility section of the System Preferences is a slider that lets you change the size of your cursor. This is not a Photoshop setting but rather one for the Mac OS.

Your cursor can only be as big as your brush, so you would not want one larger than 2px, if that's the size of your brush. If you're using a brush that size, then you need to zoom in to see what you're doing better.

I found an answer - pressing Option while the pencil tool is selected offers me a bigger cursor while Option is pressed.
