Painting Owls with Oils in Photoshop

Love-Downy-Owl-oil-impasto-painting

 

With the bristles of the new Impasto Photoshop brushes being so visible, an Owl seemed an obvious choice as a subject for some digital oil doodling. You can see that she is pleasantly surprised by the feathery look of the brush strokes.

More Oil Impasto Photoshop brush previews

Slip Stream Oil Impasto Photoshop Brush Paint samples

 

…more Photoshop impasto brushes coming soon. Someone asked me if there were any layer styles applied. The answer is no! this is pure Photoshop brush strokes, on a background image of course, but the texture on the stroke is purely from the brush, no layer effects applied.

From The Brush Workshop

Fray Ray photoshop ink brush
 

Here are a few scribbles with the Fray Ray brush, a new ink brush I’m working on. It has a nice fine point taper but when you press hard it has jagged frayed edges. One of this brush’s features is that it has a varying translucency to it, as if the ink is not 100% opaque, or the brush may be loaded with a bit too much water. Drag the stylus a bit slower and you will get that dark full opacity but sketch quickly and you see those nice patches of translucency that suggest some excitement in your sketches, evidence of a frenzied wrist.
