This is showing some rough color studies for a painting / illustration project I'm working on. I'm using the PD Howler 2024 preview, which is available for pre-order. (This video as well as all my other videos to date is not sponsored and I'm just giving my own opinions and showing my process).

I hope you enjoy watching this time-lapse video of me sketching a squirrel in Krita. I will be writing a short article with some notes about the process for the blog soon.
Stay tuned for part 2.

Here is another video about one of the many features of a digital art program called PD Howler.
The more I play with this program the more I realize how cool and versatile it is. This video focuses on creating animated custom brushes with some free sprites I downloaded.
I will write up an article for my blog later and then include some links to resources shown in this video. Again this video is not sponsored by any of the software or resources I've mentioned.

Here are some sparrows I drew in Krita a while back. There is only one more bird themed video to go after this one.

Hi again, I hope you enjoy watching this time-lapse video of me painting a red squirrel in Krita.The initial colour wash and the green paper texture was done using Rebelle 7 over a sketch I had made in Krita (open source free digital painting program I like to use).
The video starts after this stage in Krita where I use brushes from Ramon Miranda's Pencil Sketch V2 and charcoal brush sets for most of the work. (You can find those free brush sets on the official channel for Krita- I have no affiliation with them I just like the software).
I like to take a mixed media approach when I'm working, I thought it looked more like pastel pencil when I was done.
This follows from a video where I sketch the initial composition out.
The reference image I used for this study was from Pexels.
I'll be writing a blog article going over some things about this soon.
