BRUSH FAQs

Our Procreate brushes are designed by professional illustrator Esther Nariyoshi. Each set is crafted to replicate traditional art tools, offering a range of realistic textures and effects of traditional analog media like Colored Pencils, Oil Pastels, Artist Grade Crayons, Gouache and more.

Esther is also very keen to the innovative updates of Procreate Brush Studio capabilities. In turn, she effectively incorporate new features into the brush sets she makes, which most of other top brush creators may overlook. She is particularly good at bringing in color dynamics and digital blending techniques. You can see one of the examples in the Gouache Set with Duo Tone brush.
