Step-by-step Guide To Painting Realistic Textures In Digital Artwork
Want to learn the easiest technique to take your digital art and make it look hand-drawn? Tip: Add a paper background digitally. This technique works no matter what digital art medium you use, whether it’s Procreate for the iPad, Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop, this simple technique is a digital art game changer. It is subtle, but very effective. Spoiler alert, it’s really easy once you get the hang of it.
The Process Of My Realistic Oil Painting
Here is an example of an illustration made in Procreate before and after I added the paper texture. The before photo is great, but a little flat. Adding paper textures to photo after photo gives the illustration a raised, hand-drawn look.
I sell my art on demand and teach other artists how to sell art online. The last step I always do when creating print-on-demand artwork is to digitally add a paper texture background.
It helps me stand out in competitive print-on-demand platforms and make my art prints more dynamic and realistic. These are all images that I created digitally before adding the paper background.
Whether you want to sell your art online or are a budding artist looking for digital art tutorials, this will help take your creations to the next level!

In this tutorial, I’ll share two ways to add a paper texture background. One uses Procreate and the other Photoshop.
Don’t have a paper texture background? I got you! You can download the digital paper background I use for my artwork for free here:
First, you need to make sure you have a paper texture background on your iPad. My favorite way to transfer files from Mac to iPad is Airdrop.
Once it’s on your iPad, hold the artwork you want to add it to. To add a paper texture, select the wrench icon, then add and add photo.

You can then select a paper texture from your camera roll. Once selected, it will be added to a new artwork layer. If the paper texture doesn’t fit your background well, you can grab the anchor points on the edges and resize it to fit your canvas.
Once the paper texture fits the canvas, go to the Layers panel and drag the paper texture on top of all the other layers.
Now we’ll use some transparency effects in Procreate to seamlessly blend the paper texture and illustration.
Tap the “N” to the right of the paper texture layer. From there, you’ll see a menu of effects that you can switch between to see how to create different paper textures and artwork blending effects.

You can explore different options and find the best one for your illustration! My favorite modes for blending paper textures are multiply and line burn.
Multiplication is a little more subtle and linear combustion is a little more difficult. Here’s how my illustration looks after adding a paper texture background using the Linear Burn blending mode. It added a lot of dimension to my illustration and made it look deeper and more interesting from a distance.
The process of adding a paper texture background in Photoshop is similar to how we did it in Procreate. First, open the illustration you want to add in Photoshop and drag the paper texture file. Make sure it’s on a separate layer below the artwork.
Now we want to combine these two things so that the image actually penetrates the texture of the paper and looks like it is actually drawn on this paper. As in Procreate, you’ll choose the Transparency Effects menu in the Layers panel, which will say Normal. Then select “Multiply” from the drop-down menu.

The effect here is subtle, but you can see that the illustration darkens a bit as the paper texture sinks into the background with a multiplying effect. This will help your illustration look more cohesive and realistic.

When drawing fur, the key is to work from large shapes to smaller shapes (individual fur). You can see my steps in the photo below (yes I know it looks like a chocolate chip cookie, I feel hungry while painting :P). I draw from low contrast – large shapes to high contrast – small shapes. The brush you use doesn’t really matter that much, you can just use a simple round brush. The brush I use has slightly ragged edges (I have a youtube video on how to make one) and I always set the opacity based on pen pressure (this only works if you have a pressure sensitive drawing pad). Here is a video with a detailed explanation of how to wear (short and long) wool:

Thank you very much, it is much appreciated! I hope one day I will be a big fish so I can help the bass 🙂
Yes, although it is easier to change colors when painting digitally. The most important thing in the beginning is not to lose the details. Sometimes you just want to “suggest” the hair without wearing all the individual hairs.
How To Draw Anything
Thank you! Actually it’s digital, I work in photoshop with a drawing tablet 🙂 I like pastels when I work traditionally
Yes, I know, I tried oil, but I have no tolerance for it :))
I took a painting class as an undergrad and they had the option of oil or acrylic. I chose oil and regretted it. Waiting between coats of paint, spending hours in the studio…wonderful, but my other classes suffered.
Thank you! I think the basics of technology can be applied to traditional art as well. I work in a similar way, for example, with pastels.
How To Convey The Texture Of Gold In A Digital Illustration
Great tutorial! I used to draw and paint digitally without paying much attention to photorealism – it’s mostly comics now – but it’s nice to see more artists out there.
For artists, I can recommend @mikkolyytinen, a Finnish artist who does digital and analog art.
Another great tutorial. I love how you present it in small illustrations and if you want to go deeper you can check out the video tutorials. If you want to learn how to draw a digital portrait, this is a great place to start. I will make the journey as clear and easy as possible for you!
