No one asked but here’s a brief tutorial on digital underpainting and how it can add some extra flavor to your art!

(I got asked this a couple times so just to clarify: I used “overlay” in the second slide… but the rest of these examples are JUST painted on, no effects! Try playing with the opacity on your pencil/water/brush tool to allow the base color to show through!)

So it appears that Autodesk did a thing.

Go nuts, my friends.

this is my favorite art program. it’s *much* more intuitive than photoshop/gimp or corel paintshop, but it still has the full functionality of a digital art program (layers, brush stabilizer, etc.). it’s not overwhelming to start on like practically every other decent art program I’ve tried, you can just pick a brush and start drawing as if it were paper if you want. plus you can download extra brushes for free! and they publish free art tutorials pretty regularly

ANYONE looking for a free art program: worth looking into.

Got mr. Spongebob down and I need to take a break because I feel like they are judging me. Still going to finish so I can gift it to the friend but jeesh.

Just finished this drawing of #gumby from @stickyfrogs, very cute and good frogs, I hope they get lots of treaties for helping me practice drawing!

@one-time-i-dreamt I meet Jesus. Like i knew it was Jesus, but he looked like Bob Ross. I showed him what looked like a childhood painting and tried explaining what it was but started crying and felt very distressed that what i made was garbage. Bob Jesus smiled, cupped my face in his hands, and said “I’m so proud of what you’ve done. Keep going, you’re going to be amazing”

I woke up crying.

Just some practice I did when a coworker suggested it, I figured since I was told pineapples are good luck its be a good way to start the new year to post.
