/brg/ - Brushwork and Texture General:

We talk about how to create great effects with texture and how to make our brushwork look alive, digitally or traditionally.

why did all Sargent's skin textures look like there was a thick layer of cum on them?

Listen, there are more important things than brushwork, and being covered on cum is one of them

The most important thing is to have direction in mind. Once a general brush stroke direction is established, you can deviate from it a little like Sargent's painting, but you can still tell that the strokes largely follow one flow

tldr be like water?

I just don’t get it.... why do my edges feel so bad? When I blend it becomes smudgy mud, when I do value steps from a block in it looks like this... is it a value, brush or stroke/direction problem? Or just unrefined, needs more work?
