I made my artwork ‘twinkle’ with the the animation tool in Procreate.

Here’s how

Turn on animations assist in the canvas menu. Have your artwork on one layer.

Click on the artwork frame and check the background option to make this the background layer. (Super important).

Add a frame and layer. Draw over the elements you want to move, free hand, to give them some movement. The more frames you draw. The more movement you get.

Press play!

I exported mine as an MP4 in order to play on Instagram.

A bit of fun for a Friday! 🙂
