How to make a 2D geyser?

[Exqualater]

Hello. I need in the background to create something like a geyser that will look like balls. The bottom will be large, but the higher the balls will be smaller. Can this be created with a special tool, or is it necessary to do it with a brush?

»look like balls«

What exactly do you mean by that? 

Please post an example. 

Photoshop does not feature full-color Brushes so far, so a Brush can utilize scattering, Pen Pressure for size etc. but it cannot lay down full color images. 

Edit:

I need something like this, only more carefully. It was painted with a brush, but can there be a special tool?

What do you mean by »special tool«? 

Maybe you would be better served with Illustrator’s Symbol Sprayer Tool. 

Unlike the pixels created by a Brush in Photoshop Illustrator’s results can be expanded and the symbol instances can be moved/scaled/… individually.

I mean some kind of tool that will automatically create such points / geysers

Here is how you made this setup?

Not Photoshop but Ilustrator has a special toot for symbol painting. You just spray… after a few settings as usual…
