This is an illustration from a story I am developing. I wanted to show more texture in the pieces and especially in the sheep. So, here I embossed a pattern over the sheep's wooly coat.
Using Painter X, I created the pattern first, one that I liked, saved it, and then used it with the pattern embossing brush to create the effect.
Using a technique like this once in a while can be effective. One just has to be sure not to overdo it.
I am hoping to find some other ways to create various textures that won't overpower the other spreads in this book. I love the journey that illustration takes me on each day!

This is gorgeous with the texture in the sheep!
Wonderful Texture Ginger! I think it works really well. I am trying textures too. . .but you are right one can get overdone.
The little girl is adorable too!
