If you’ve been using Procreate for awhile, chances are you’ve accumulated a large collection of brushes.  

(If you’re new to Procreate and want to try a quick and easy project, check out my course on creating colorful doodle stickers in Procreate.) 

If your brush library looks anything like mine, it’s a massive list of brushes of all types and for all purposes.  Talk about overwhelming!

I found I was not getting much use out of most of my Procreate brushes since I had so many and they were just sort of randomly in there.  I didn’t even remember which brushes I already had.  

I found myself only using a few favorite brushes, such as the 6b pencil, monoline brush, Lisa Glanz Instant Artist Brushes, and some others.  

I wanted to get more organized so that I could get more use out of my brushes without wasting time looking through the whole list each time.  

Recently I started organizing my brushes in a way that works for me.  I’m pretty happy with how this turned out so I decided to share with you in this course!

In this course I’ll show you three ways to organize your Procreate Brush Library so you can get more use out of your amazing brushes!  You’ll learn how to 

  • Create a “Favorite Brushes Set”
  • Combine Brush Sets
  • Organize Your Brush Sets by Type

As you’ll see, I organized my brushes into the following categories:

  • Lettering
  • Watercolor
  • Painting (all painting types except watercolor)
  • Textures
  • Crayons (which also includes charcoals and markers)
  • Stamps
  • Patterns
  • Kits
  • Grids and Templates
  • Sketching (pens and pencils)
