Dog in watermelon

Usually I use these basic brushes:

But I also really like brushes from Tokkuren on twitter/X

I often just go on Pinterest too,and find brushes just to experiment with them on my art lol

I would say to just try with new artstyles to improve art.I think its really usefull to know other styles. I am currently trying to learn a little of anatomy and I can draw hands now.And just trying to draw like other artists is fun .I like to develop my own artstyle thought learning how others draw

For colors….Also I don’t really understand color theory because it’s hard for me 😭but I usually make one color of background and draw the characters in basic pallate they have,and I put filters on it so it will match the background.then when I’m satisfied with the color of the character and background I start rendering and adding details(I love details) or just funny shapes on around.

But art is for fun :} I just have fun drawing characters I like.
