A soft, textured calligraphic brush designed for the Procreate App and the Apple Pencil. It pairs well with the default Artists Crayon, which is one of my favorites – I wanted to be able to add textured calligraphy next to my illustrations, and lo, the Calligraphy Crayon was born. It has a hand-drawn tip shape, so you won’t find another out there like it. Enjoy!

Tips for using the brush:
- The brush tip shape follows the direction of the pencil, so hold your pencil perpendicular to your strokes.
- Add texture to your background with the Procreate default Artists Crayon (in the sketching brush section)
- The grain stays oriented to the original canvas no matter how you rotate your pencil, for the most realistic “paper grain” results.
- Experiment with the opacity sliders and streamline settings for different styles
