Extract the files. Close your photoshop. Copy the extracted files(.abr extension). Now go to programs>adobe>photoshop>presets>brushes. In the brushes folder, paste the file u coped.
Then open your photoshop. Open a new document and edit as per normal. Click the brush tool. There will be a setting icon. Click on it, there will be a drop down menu. There you can see the brushes you have copied(make sure u know the name of the brushes set you have copied). Click on it. There will be a prompt. Click APPEND. Now go to list of brushes, scroll down and select the brush u just loaded. Change the size of the brush(mostly the setting will be huge for brush size). After that start brushing on the canvas. Remember u need a new layer to brush.
As for brushes, Ill recommend paisley and paint brush. 😳
