✨Hi! I’m Renn💫
Intro
New year = new introduction.
Howdy friends! My name is Renn and making art has become my obsessive hobby. It fulfils my childhood dreams and gives me the self esteem to keep learning and growing.
Here is where I track my art journey and compile any artworks that aren’t displayed in my Art Bakery shop. I started with traditional sketches and anime / manga fanart as a teen, stopped making art for a decade or so as life got busy, and then picked up art again with a few Inktober attempts. I started making digital art via Procreate at the end of January 2021 (without a stylus, hence “fingerpaint” art).

My Art Things
This is a section describing the gear I use and general (digital) art process things. I will try to update it as I grow.Hardware:
iPad 8th GenerationiPad Pro 2022- Apple Pencil,
1st Generation2nd Generation
- Paperlike Screen Protector
- Apple Pencil Grips / Case
- Procreate (latest version)
- PureRef (Organizes and collects and displays references on my computer so I don't have to use the clunky Pinterest interface). FREE (you can put $0 in the donation prompt, though it's worth paying the recommended $5).
- MagicPoser Browser App for posing references in whatever light scenarios I want
- Concept / Shape Blocking: "Coloring" by Designed_for_g
- Sketching: Jingsketch "Clean Sketch" - very responsive and does what I want it to
- Lineart:
- Coloring:
- Base Color: Procreate's Inking - "Studio Pen" at Max Stability
- Shading / Painterly coloring: Jingsketch "Round Render", with some adjustments, but I'm looking to change this
- Pixel Art: all time best for ProCreate and free = Pixebo's set
- Special Effects:
- Monoline (under the Calligraphy section of Procreate's default brushes) -- consistent size to make perfect circles or lines without changing thickness
- Lightpen (under the Luminance default brushes) for glowing light effects / highlights
- Gradient maps if you dare
