📝 Description

If you’ve ever tried to replicate gouache digitally, you know it’s tricky. Most brushes look fake or too clean. Tayler solved that by scanning her own traditional gouache strokes and building brushes from those scans. The result? Textures that carry the grain, edge quality, and opacity variation of the real thing.

The pack includes separate files for Photoshop and Procreate, so you’re covered no matter which software you prefer. And since both files are included, you can switch between programs without losing your favorite brushes.

As a bonus, Tayler threw in several time-lapses of her own painting process using these brushes. It’s a nice peek into how she works and how the brushes behave in real projects. Whether you’re a beginner experimenting with textures or a pro looking to speed up your workflow, this pack gives you a solid foundation for gouache-style digital painting.
