Fabulous
Yay! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for commenting đ€â€ïž Iâm heading over to your other comment next. But, the short answer is that those brushes (Watercolor Set No. 1) have a few Color Pressure options set. đ
Fun videos - I learned a lot about makes custom brushes in procreate! Subscribed.
Thatâs great! đAlso, thank you for your comment and subscriptionđ€â€ïž

Tq mam. I have learnt very useful tutorial â€. I had made one am very happy and excited create a new đïž.
Oh that is so great! Thanks for commenting and sharing your success đ€đ©·
Hi Liz!
How could you possibly have known that I was just searching for this very thing? Thanks for the tutorial! God bless.
Yay!!! Iâm so glad that the timing worked out so well Erika! Thanks for your comment đ€â€ïž
It looks great, thanks for sharing. On my iPad, the brush size and opacity are on the left hand side of the screen? Do you find that your iPad gets quite warm, when using the Procreate app please? x
Thanks for these great questions. The following link is for how to change the interface (e.g., how to locate the brush size and opacity sliders to the side you'd prefer): procreate.art/handbook/procreate/actions/actions-preferences/
NOTE: I orient my iPad with the power button at right. Likewise the Procreate tools I use most (brushes/palettes) are on the right. So, I prefer the sliders there, too. But, this is just a personal thing and many right-handed users prefer the sliders on the left.
Also, graphic intensive apps can cause the iPad to heat up a bit. Here's a thread from the apple community about it: discussions.apple.com/thread/251526192
Hope this helps and thanks again for your questions đ€â€
May you do a wallpaper version for this please? I love it â€ïžđ
Hi @MISSTIROSSA. Thank you for your comment đ€â€
The tile (square pattern) you make/draw--just before you make the texture brush--is a seamless repeating tile and could be used for wallpaper. đ
However, if it's wallpaper for a wall (rather than a computer/tablet screen), you may need to use a different app (like Adobe Illustrator) to make a higher resolution tile. It just depends on the vendor that does the printing (like Society6, for example). Best wishes!
Hello thank you for your videos. Would please suggest which exactly procreate are you using?
Sure đ I go for the automatic updates on my iPad, so I am always using the most recent version when I make a new video. Thanks for asking. đ€â€ïž
Thank you so much! Quick questionâŠI followed your tutorial, and undead have a seamless design. But as soon as I make it into a brush or the stamp, It is no longer seamless. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? TIA!
This is a great question. Thank you for asking đ€â€ïž
Though it doesnât seem like it, only the original tile is seamless. Thatâs the artwork we use to make the texture brush. If the tile is seamless, but the design of the texture brush isnât, there may be a setting within the Brush Studio that needs adjustment (probably Grain>Edit>Auto Repeat).
The next part is the stamp. And, since the size of the canvas can vary, the texture we use (though it may be using the seamless tile as intended) wonât always create a new seamless tile. It just lays down our pattern on the canvas weâve got.
So, for me, the stamps are really about saving time for projects (for example, I create 12x12 stamps for a 12x12 canvas for scrapbook projects).
So, in the end, if youâre looking for a seamless pattern to upload to a company like Society6, use that original tile-the art that comes before the texture brush and then stamp.đ
I hope this all makes sense. Itâs a bit different to think about seamless patterns in terms of the basic tile-we tend to talk about the completed design made of multiple tiles. So, if I just made it even more confusing, please let me know. Or, if I answered the wrong question (sorry if I did), please let me know. Meanwhile, Happy New Year and happy illustratingđ€â€ïž
Absolutely fun design. I wanted to get the brushes but I don't see them on your website anymore.
Oh yes, I am in the process of moving things to Etsy and havenât gotten to that set yet. Iâll leave a message here for you when I dođ€â€ïž Thanks for your comment, support, and request đ
@Liz Ness Thank you. I just started learning Procreate and been watching your videos.
@@Rebecca-vf8sf I just got the set updated and in my shop here: www.etsy.com/listing/1403407590 Thanks again for your interest and for reaching outđ€â€
I just got them. They are amazing. Thank you for all of your tutorials.
@@Rebecca-vf8sf thank you for your kind words and business-I really appreciate bothđ€â€ïž
Is there a reason why you use your finger and not the pencil? The pattern is very pretty!
Thanks for your question. Iâve never really thought about it much. đ€Ł
I think that I probably go between the pencil and my finger as if I am drawing (pencil) and then spreading around charcoal or pastel (finger). I just use the âtoolâ that makes sense to me, personally, in the moment.
Honestly, I really believe that there are different and equally effective ways to approach it. đ€â€ïž
How are you switching the double color usage in the mosaic
This is a great question and thanks for asking itđ€â€ïž
For the two color brushes, there are some Color Dynamics options set within the Brush Studio. For these brushes, three Color Pressure settings were set so that the two palette colors would interact with pencil pressure changes. Specifically, Saturation, Brightness, and Secondary Color. However, the percentages for each brush differ (because each brush has a different intended use). And, the Daisy Petals brush in that set (not used in this video tutorial) is a combo brush and has some interesting behaviors as a result of those Color Pressure settings.
I just LOVE all of the options within the Procreate Brush Studio. Making brushes for this app is so fun and interesting (and sometimes a good puzzle for my brain, LOL đ€Łđ).
Thanks again for this question and I hope your day is AMAZING đ€â€ïž
@@LizNess after asking the question, I did a toggle between the two brushes and this way might work, but according to what you're saying above, use the pressure sensitivity to do the toggling. I'll try, and thanks for such a tutorial. I've always wanted to make televera and now here's my chance!
How did you get that brush? Please explain
Thanks for your question. đ The watercolor brush is from a brush set I made and sell in my shop here: pineconeandpencil.com/product/brushes_watercolor_1/
I'm thinking about making a mini course about how to make a watercolor brush set--would that be something that you're interested in?
Thanks again for your comment â€ïžđ€
@@LizNess I would love to see how you create a watercolor brush and gouache. I created them, but don't know that I like the outcome. Thanks
@@lifeisart8120 Iâll add that to my notes. Iâve been thinking about creating a course on different brushes + how to use them. Thank you for your comment and encouragement in that direction đ€â€ïž
Which application??
Procreateđ
I wish I could hear the artist speak but the music overpowers everything. Why is loud music necessary ? Please offer a voice only option. Looks like a great tutorial. I did turn on CC with speakers off so that was helpful but of course I can't watch the visuals and read the captions at the same time, so frustrating ! But thanks for the effort.
Thank you for your comment and Iâm sorry the music seemed loud. Also, I wanted to let you know that the music only plays when there is no talking on the video (just in case youâre still interested in watching the video). You should be able to lower the volume and still hear me when the music stops and I talk.
Hope that helps.
You didnât even watch it clearly. Adults are the biggest bullies.
I don't understand why use layers. I always do it without layers. Why it is better to use it.
GREAT question! Really, it all comes down to preference-there really is no right or wrong way when it comes to layers. For design, I tend to use layers for two reasons and they are both related to keeping my effort low and my options high đ€Łđ
The first reason I prefer multiple layers is so that it is easier to make corrections-especially, if I donât notice a mistake (or change my mind about the design) right away with shapes that are overlayed. I found it saves me effort and frustration (both in losing work if I have to undo a bunch of steps to get back to the point when I made the mistake, or in trying to cut and repair the mistake). The next reason is that I sometimes turn the layers into separate brushes so that I can lay down different colors within Procreate. So, I tend to keep like items on a layer and overlapped pieces on separate layers.
Often, though, my illustrations and digital paintings are combined on a single layer.
Thanks for asking about that and sharing your approach-I just love how individual approaches can differđ€â€ïž
Thank you so much for your explanations on layers, which is great help for my son to make full use of Procreate. Recently he is struggling with mosaic homework and your video inspired him so much!
@@autumnleaves5063 I loved reading this so much. Iâm glad that your son enjoyed the mosaic video! Thanks so much for this commentđ€â€ïž
