Found the original sketch for A Gift while rummaging through Procreate tonight.
(Including the finished version for comparison)
how does your linework have that rough, inky quality to the edges even though it's digital? How do you do it?
The distressed edges of my line art are from the brush I use! It's the Bold Engraver Single from True Grit Texture Supply's Rusty Nib pack (specifically the Procreate version).
I did make some minor adjustments to the grain settings to amp up its texture, but this brush is what gives my lines a roughened look!
It would be fun to visually compare what others have assumed my art influences are vs. my actual inspirations.
Instead of fighting new interests, what if I embraced them?
My latest drawing fascination has been funky organic shapes. I need to figure out a way to incorporate them into my "typical" art (weird landscapes? flora? creature details?)
Been delving more into linocut recently!
I absolutely want to create new designs for printmaking, but there's also a part of me that would love to reuse some of my past illustrations for block printing purposes.
On the drying rack!
