Hi Emma! You carry me through my day. I listen to and watch your videos again and again and I always seem to take something new away. You're such a bright spot!
You're always one that I look forward to your vlogs. You have such an incredibly sweet soul that jumps through the screen and are so talented. Thank you for continuing to show up here, even when it may be difficult because of a full and busy life.
Tip if you want more layers for procreate you need to get a higher tier ipad they have the capacity to let you use more layers, I think you deserve an upgrade, go for the top tier ipad pro and youll get more layers :)
I just found you today, and find your work so charming! I'm just starting an illustration career after years of being an art teacher and not having the time for it. Now I'm making the time. Thanks for sharing your process with KDP, that led me to you and I've now subscribed!
Thank you so much for watching Autumn 🥰 and thanks for your lovely comment. Welcome 👋that's so exciting you're pursuing an illustration career, I bet you have loads of experience from teaching art that will feed into your work too!
Hi Emma! Nice to hear what you've been up to lately! Do you know what? I would love if you were to do a children's book that explains why cats sit on things. That would be very amusing and a way to use your images in another fashion, perhaps? I'm sure your whimsical sense would come up with really fun explanations as to why cats sit on the things that they do, the more it rhymes the better. Or how about writing it in Welsh??? I hope you next vlog will have you moved and in your new house! Cheers!
Hehe that is a fun idea. Tom suggested I should do a sticker book with the cats. My Welsh isn’t THAT good yet 😆 but I do know that cat is ‘cath’. And I can also say. Dw i’n mwynhau dysgu Cymraeg. I enjoy learning Welsh 😄🏴
Your vlogs are so fun! I'm doing some tedious photoshopping today and love putting on chatty videos as I am working. Look forward to hearing how your licensing journey goes!
@@EmmaCarpenterIllustration It's for making listings on etsy. I use mockups to show what my art prints look like in frames. I guess more on the graphic design side of things?
Hi again long time no see! I know I have asked you before but I have forgotten...What procreate brushes do you use? Was it 6b pencil? Im so glad you still do art! You're one of my favorite illustratiors! And I hope you never quit, and I think youre style is so unique and one day I hope you release a book about your "little folk" Id love to read that with your illustrations.or a book about your cats. Youre also so good with color idk how you do it but your coloring is marvelous and your pictures are always the right amount of detailed!
Hello 😊👋 Yes I use the 6b pencil that comes with procreate and also I bought some digital pencil brushes from Design Cuts. Thanks for your kind words and encouragement, I'm working on my ghost book now, but I would love to do a book about fairy folk and cats!
@@EmmaCarpenterIllustration Mind I ask what size and transparency on the 6b pencil? And and have you done any tweaks to it?what size canvas? And may I ask the name of the brush bundle from design cuts? I got intrested now. Oh yes I saw you had uploaded a video about the ghost book! I was afraid to look 🫣 But the thimbnail looked cool like it had allot of texture! Oh you do?! Awsm! It would be so whimsichql if you did a fairy or cat book Im sure :) thank you for answering.
@@Shadowthevampire I don’t lower the transparency and I change the size. I think sometimes it’s best to try different things for yourself and work out what you like best.
Hi Kayla, it depends on what I'm creating. Sometimes I'll create an A4 size canvas with 600 dpi, sometimes I work square so I'll do 30cm square canvas. I create a custom canvas, and select either cm or mm and then do the highest dpi I can. Obviously the bigger the canvas the less layers you can have. If I'm creating an enamel pin design though I don't need a really big canvas. Hope that helps 😊
@@EmmaCarpenterIllustration Yes, I think so. I'm just getting into graphic design/digital art so I'm trying to figure some things out. Thank you for the response.
💌 International Orders are now back 🥳 Hope you all enjoy the vlog!

What lipstick are you wearing when you were taking your new profile picture, it's really nice :)

@@EmmaCarpenterIllustration I would still very much get an answer on this question if possible ^^^

I have a horrible signature lol my handwriting is so messy. Welsh seems so hard to learn! good luck with it
Hehe glad I’m not the only one 😄 Some of the words are hard to pronounce, but it’s been really fun learning it together with Tom.
always fun learning another language, especially with another person. you can laugh at each others mistakes 😝
@@fuzzydragons 😆 that’s true!
I know you use 600 dpi. What size (pixels, etc) do you use for the whole piece and individual elements?
