I used to hate the smudge tool, but now I love it. It took me a while to figure out which settings were just right for a perfect blurred edge!
I don't gatekeep, so I made a free smudge brush set! I've been using it in all my recent art. Grab it here: links.loish.net

Have you tried the new Procreate brushes? I was trying to get a creamy, painterly look, but it all blended together into a muddy mess 😅 I still love the painterly style, so I figured out some tricks to make it work!
I made a video about it ~ find it here: www.patreon.com/posts/tutori...

A little ode to last month! I associate October with many round things: pumpkins, acorns, apples, but also my cats, who become extremely round and fluffy as their fur thickens. Here’s my little ode to the roundest month of the year 🟠

I went to Iceland in August! I had to paint some of the beautiful things I saw. It was very weird, magical, and inspiring! I will definitely go back one day to see more of the island, but for now, I am revisiting it through my art 🖤

I love a soft, buttery rendering style. A gloopy, velvety, warm and glowy approach, if you will.

Muddy colors: the enemy of every painter. I get a lot of questions about how to keep colors vibrant, so it was time to make a tutorial video about it!

I’m lowkey obsessed with blurry, soft edges lately. The smudge tool has a chokehold on me.

I am on a lifelong quest to paint super round, chunky flowers that look like cabbages. This is the latest installation!

Gradients, smudge tool, blur - they’re all great tools, until your art turns into a blurry mess. A soft rendering style is not easy to pull off, which is why I made a video about it ~ this one comes with 3 smudge brushes that I made myself! ✨

Trying to capture tension in a pose! 💪 You know, the kind where you can see the muscles and tendons popping out. RAAHHH!! 😤
