I loved this one! When I shared final results with some friends they all thought it was a photo!

Hello Flo. I am having a problem with your "Soft Short Fur" brush in Procreate. When I draw the circle with it (as in the dandelion), the brush rotates so the lines in the brush flow parallel to the stroke instead of remaining perpendicular. When I go into the brush studio to look at it on the drawing pad, it seems to work as expected, but when I go to use it on the canvas, it rotates the brush lines 90 deg. so they are parallel to the stroke. Do you have any suggestions as to what I need to do with the brush settings?

Hmmm... perhaps you have 'orient to screen' turned on? It's in the brush settings under Properties.

Thank you Flo, that seems to have corrected the problem. I did discover that if you paint the brush counterclockwise, the brush shape rotates 180 degrees so the outer edge is opposite of what you get by painting the stroke clockwise.
