#and the handfeel (???) the… traction…? feels a lot better than acrylic

Ok fuck. I know only post digital art but I just tried gouache for the first time and look at how cute this little motherfucker is.

#my art #LOOKATHIMHES JUST A LITTLE GUYYYYYY #I think it’s pretty good considering I haven’t picked up a physical paintbrush in probably what like #I’ll give it a solid five years (not exaggerating!) #someone insulted a painting I did as a kid and I just mentally blocked all forms of painting #but I did take an art class in highschool and make some shoddy acrylic paintings -w- #as far as physical media goes I’ve always been more into inks and pencils #only decided to try out goache because I hear the process is similar to how I do digital #starting with mid tones and then working in shadows and light #and the handfeel (???) the… traction…? feels a lot better than acrylic #and I’m REALLY into the textured look a dryer brush gives. I’ve always been bad at experimenting with digital brushes lol #I always think they look cool but I forget which ones are which -3- #why do I always write full essays in the tags… I just can’t stop myself.
