Week twenty-seven

Free Procreate Brushes!

Have you heard the news? For July, Making Art Everyday is going to be Kid’s Month! I am SO EXCITED about it all the fun stuff I’ve planned – details are coming in next week’s email! One of the things I made for Kid’s Month is a special set of FREE Procreate brushes to emulate your favorite childhood art supplies.

This set is called “Kids Make Art!” (And in my opinion, kids make some of the BEST art.) My favorite brush is the crayon – it’s got so much amazing texture! The brush set even includes a User Guide PDF with a mini-tutorial about how to draw a crocodile!
