In this video chat episode nine, we discuss incorporating story and glow effects in Procreate into your illustrations.

Having a story in mind when creating artwork is so important because it keeps you inspired and helps to bring out the creativity in what you are doing. It creates a deeper connection with your artwork and draws people into the story behind what you are creating.

When you're creating animals with storytelling in mind, giving your animals human characteristics or activities helps drive home a connection with your artwork.
