  • After watching this video, you'll have more confidence on what your brushes are really capable of (even with just the default ones)
    I know beginners tend to ask a lot of questions on which brushes a particular artist use and think that having the same brushes can make them a better artist. Well I'm here to explain that you actually just need a few versatile brushes and it actually depends more on how you use them rather than having that "perfect brush" for that specific part of your painting.

    Erasing with textures brushes is such a great method. I never thought of that.

      😆😆 well this could be applied to any software not just Krita, but I am happy that Krita is getting a lot of recognition from CSP's recent announcement

    • @NikolaNevenov86
      @NikolaNevenov86 Год назад +3

      In a way I can understand CSP,
      If you want development you would want a subscription type service. Programmers need to be paid to do stuff. The same is with Krita.... Krita isn't free...it's Free to use, but there is a core of dedicated supporters that are paying what amounts to a subscription fee so that Krita is being further developed.

    Thank you for this video! I'm looking around for tutorials on how to understand brushes and this is right in the range of what I want. Something more informational than "try out the effects for yourself!" but more about understanding extant brushes than "nitty gritty explanation of how to create a brand new brush".

    people are too attached to brushes but the real secret here is the color picking. It really doesn't matter the brush you use.

    • @RexelBartolome
      @RexelBartolome  6 месяцев назад +1

      yes, it's a pretty common trap to fall into. Novices see the textures and want to emulate it in their own work without knowing values and colors are the ones that makes or breaks a painting, not texture.

  • @wavypeso
    @wavypeso 10 месяцев назад +1

    I always paint everything with one or 2 brushes and do my details by hand I don’t like how some people use the shape brushes too much it makes the painting less genuine to me

    • @RexelBartolome
      @RexelBartolome  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yea I can see where you're coming from, use too many shape brushes and it will definitely feel more 'digital' looking and some prefer the traditional look of everything having a hand-painted feel.

      The artist is John Park. But maybe look up other artists instead like Lixin Yin or Craig Mullins. I've found out after making this video that John Park has a bunch of controversies regarding manipulating and dating students while teaching at Brainstorm School.

      Just FYI his name is John Park and afaik yes he does have an Instagram account. Though I'd recommend other people instead as I've learned John Park has a history of dating students in Brainstorm School where he teaches, he also has lots of strong ties with NFT's.
