One the things I use Metabrush for is to paint sweeping brush strokes to create big hair. That's where this image gets its name.
I started with this photo from Pixabay, a source of copyright-free images. I like her serious gaze and the simple composition.
I had processed her previously in iColorama, and reused that image.
I made this image in Metabrush. You can see how I made this brush here.
Using Effect/Distort, I distorted the Metabrush image over the woman, using Multiply mode or Overlay mode.
After some minor processing in iColorama for sharpness and contrast, I opened the image in Metabrush and painted these strokes. I used the same brush and brush settings I used in the Metabrush image above. I just used the default white brush source.
In iColorama, after using Style/Flow, Effect/Sharpen, tone and a touch of Effect/Raise.
