One of my goals this year is to provide more free stuff to people who visit this blog. I thought I’d start by highlighting some of my favorite free brushes to make them easier to find. This month’s featured freebie is my Scripty Flourish brush. You can download it here. If you use it, I’d love to see your awesome work, so tag @AlexisGentry on Instagram.
Since this blog is usually about lettering, a lot of you might not know that I’m a member of the Denver Film Critics Society through my entertainment blog, Trashwire. Each year the DFCS members nominate films for our top picks of the year. The 2019 nominations just came out today, and while some of my faves (Bad Times at the El Royale) didn’t make the list, there are some super solid choices on here. You can check out the completel list on Trashwire.com. The winners will be announced Jan. 14.
I just released a new bundle that’s perfect for Procreate lettering beginners. This one includes 12 brushes with different textures, pressure settings, brush shapes and grains. There’s enough variety to create cool, unique lettering projects and to practice your hand-lettering skills.
Check out the brushes below.
And pick up the pack on Etsy and Creative Market.

I just released two brand new Procreate lettering brushes. You can buy them from Etsy or Creative Market.
The first is called Static Shock and it has a cool brush shape that gives it a choppy texture.
The second is called Broken Brush and it includes a unique shape and grain to make it resemble a broken old paint brush.
If you use them, tag @AlexisGentry on Instagram so I can check out your cool creations!
It’s no secret that everyone loves the symmetry tool in Procreate. It’s easily one of their best new features. I recently created some fun Halloween coloring pages using symmetry. The first is a bunch of Halloween items, skulls, pumpkins, spider webs, all that jazz. The second is a blank skull template that you can use to create some amazing sugar skulls.
Download the coloring pages as one Procreate file.
Download the Halloween symmetry design as a transparent PNG to print or import on your iPad.
