Learning how to paint is one of the most challenging skills to learn, especially for digital artists who have become familiar with layered editing, photo effects and other digital manipulation in tools like Photoshop.
Digital painting isn’t fundamentally from traditional painting, however, there are some unique advantages. Thanks to the undo button, it’s possible to remove brush strokes in the event of a mistake, and it’s possible to get layered effects. However, both the workflow and getting used to looking at the screen while painting on a tablet (or with a mouse) takes practice.
In this post, I’ve selected some masterful digital painting tutorials that will help you understand certain techniques, workflows, and the overall painting process from start to finish.
