Pro tip: I finally stopped overworking my line art layers.

I kept seeing people post art with muddy, thick lines and my own work looked the same until a tutorial from an artist in Chicago showed me to keep my brush opacity at 70% and use a separate layer for sketch cleanup. How do you keep your line work looking clean and sharp?

That's like the art version of working smarter not harder.

Honestly that's how I run my whole life now.

Switched to cheap brushes and never looked back.

Read an article about a painter who just uses house paint on drywall. The results are surprisingly good and it saves a ton on materials. Sometimes the smart move is just picking the right tool for the job.
