Moving from Adobe to Procreate with Kyle T. Webster | Episode 44

Cover art for Episode 44

Kyle T Webster

is arguably the most influential person in digital illustration brushes, period. He started making Photoshop brushes a long time ago, leading to Adobe's acquisition of his brushes and his talent in 2017. In 2024, Kyle left Adobe and joined Procreate in very close succession. I wanted to catch up with Kyle and let him explain what happened, in his own words.

Keep your eyes peeled: This conversation will be available to watch on YouTube in the next few days!
