In this video I show you how to paint quirky illustrated portraits in Procreate.
Stuff I used for this video:
👉🏼 Watercolor Brushes:
The watercolor effect is coming from a watercolor paper texture and some watercolor brushes. These are both included in this kit:
Rough and Dreamy Watercolor for Procreate:
drifterstudio.etsy.com/listing/1752937446/rough-dr…
This kit has 3 textures and I am using the "Rough" one.
If you cannot afford the brushes/texture, please message me on Etsy and I can help you with free brushes!! I love to teach art and help traditional artists learn digital painting. The income from the Etsy store makes my channel financially sustainable. I'm really trying my best to make my obsession with procreate productive, but Youtube ads reward only popular content and I just don't want to make that... I prefer to make my videos as short and not click-baity as possible and I hate trendy 'content' 😅
DRIFTER STUDIO UPDATE:
Currently drifter studio has some chaos going on that's affecting the production schedule. I had a lot of stuff on my mind recently, and it makes it hard to sort of think creatively. Usually when I have art block like this, I just tried to do my best to avoid doing nothing. For example I just make sure I paint something small and simple, instead of just giving up and painting nothing.
Personally, I feel like the new Apple Pencil isn't really worth the money. it does have a handful of nice features but mostly I find them distracting. Even though the iPad Air six is pretty cheap, I think it is more than enough for digital art with procreate.
I designed the new rough and dreamy watercolor set to function with all of the features in the Apple Pencil Pro, but you can still turn them off in the iPad settings if it's annoying. Anyways, thanks for everything and message me anytime, I love to chat with you 🙏
