Watercolor Calligraphy Procreate Brush Pack
The Watercolor Calligraphy Procreate Brush Pack is the complete kit for drawing realistic watercolor calligraphy on your iPad. The 37 brushes take the guess work out of digital watercolor lettering, whether you're creating flourished calligraphy styles or free-flowing brush script.
Back in May, I started work on a watercolor calligraphy brush kit for Procreate. The creation process was a lot more involved than that of other packs I’d created in the past. It took weeks of experimentation to get the perfect translucency, edge bleed, pigment variation, pressure sensitivity, texture, and shape for the 37 brushes that ultimately made it into the kit.
Finally – finally! – I launched this toolkit yesterday, and I’m so proud of how it turned out!
The 37 brushes and backgrounds take the guess work out of digital watercolor lettering, whether you’re creating flourished calligraphy styles, free-flowing brush script, or delicate illustrations.
Realism was my #1 goal. (I even made a watercolor paper background brush so your lettering looks like paint absorbed into real cotton paper!) Once I perfected the first 10 calligraphy brushes, I created an ombré version of each one, so you can achieve beautiful color variations as you write, without having to open your swatch palette after each letter.
I designed the 20 lettering brushes specifically for writing calligraphy, with realistic watery effects. They come in a wide array of paint characteristics, with varying amounts of bleeding, translucency, color variation, and pigmentation. Each lettering brush comes in an ombré version, too, for beautiful color variations as you write.
To complete the look of your watercolor artwork, you get 17 more brushes for drawing watercolor washes, backgrounds, and paint splatters.
