Time for our monthly tutorial! This tutorial is all about how I work with photo reference in my art and what I pay attention to when I am drawing from reference.

When working with reference, it can be easy to get too caught up in little details that distract from the overall piece. In this tutorial I share my process of working on a piece from a photo reference, what elements I define as most important, and how I expand on that piece by incorporating another couple of references.

I hope you find some helpful nuggets in this tutorial to use in your own process!

Just a tip for any Procreate users who don't know: you can do a reference photo by going to the wrench icon->Canvas->Toggle Reference. Great tutorial as always, Chrissa!

I've been trying to combine references more often these days so this was super helpful, thank you so much 😊
