Illustration Progress
For this project I primarily used pencil brushes available on ProCreate, brush options I don’t use often in my works. I also experimented with the new brushes designed by Kyle T. Webster offered in the app’s ‘ProCreate Collection.’ I used the collections more textural brushes for the grass beneath Ulverston lighthouse and the trees behind the boat in Coniston.
