I want to start a thread about digital brushes and the ways one can use them in most efficient way. I know that people say you can draw with simple round brush but in my expirience using right brush for specific things helps you tramendesly in your work . In this studies i used sargent sketcher brush,that i found in wesley gardener's brush pack, for blocking in and some random soft brush with a bit of texture for smooth gradient transition. . I liked surgent sketcher brush right away and i deffenetly will use it more in the future. Over time i gethered collection of my favorite brushes for different use cases. So what brushes you like to use? How and when exectly(in what paticular stages of painting) you like to use them?

It's my first landscape study. Don't realy know what to concentrate on so just trying to get the colours and shapes right. Whould like to have a feedback of someone who has done studies before. Painting of a genius russian painter Levitan:"Evening call".

Learning to do portraits so looking for feedback in terms of everything likeness,color, proportions etc. I am posting portraits of ( Layne Staley,Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Johnny Cash, Richie Havens,Jimmi Hendrix).
