How can I get a display of a Gaussian filter in real time by painting with the brush?

I'm trying to find information on how to get a live view of the Gaussian blur by painting with the brush.

Google is not useful, nor own Adobe forum searches produce something useful.

I've seen talk about Smart filters and naming the layer as a smart object in order to activate a dynamic filter, but I can't get the display in real-time of the filter when you paint so I'm not sure if this process is helpful at all for me or not because I can't locate information specific to what I'm trying to do.

I use by way CS5, so if this option does not exist, it would be useful to know so that I'm not spinning my wheels.

Thank you

You seem to talk about to see in the future.  You want to see the effect of a unused Gaussian blur filter while wearing the brushstrokes on that later, you intend to use the Gaussian blur.  How would this work?

I use constantly a similar workflow for shading in my illustration work.  If the blur spreads too wide effect, I use Free Transform to resize. If it becomes too transparent, duplicate the layer to increase the opacity.  If too thick, I reduce the opacity of the layer.  I wouldn't bother using intelligent layers of the to because it would have no benefit.  Is it that help at all?
