Hello, 

Is there a way to change a paint brush into a history brush? Where can I get more Art History Brushes? Thank you.

One can override a Brush’s dedicated Tool (if the Brush was created with »Include Tool Settings« checked) by cmd-alt-clicking it in the Brushes Panel. 

Edit: I do apologize, I had mistakenly stated cmd, it’s cmd-alt. 

 

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Brushes, Options Bar, …) visible?

So I've chosen the brush I want (a watercolour brush in the screenshot below) - then clicked cmd-alt - then tried selecting the Art History Brush, but it reverts back to one of the History Brushes I have.

 I asked for a specific screenshot – is there a problem with providing it? 

 

To use a Brush with a Tool it was not created for select the Tool in the Toolbar, then select the Brush in the Brushes Panel with the qualifier-keys, not the other way round.
