Convert your art into custom vignettes with ease using these handy Affinity Designer vector brushes. For those not familiar with the term, a vignette is an image that fades gradually into the background. Vignettes are seen everywhere from children’s books, editorial illustrations, fine art and beyond, making these Affinity Designer brushes the perfect partner to almost any other digital illustration tool and a welcome addition to any digital artist’s tool kit.
Why I created the brushes:
I made the pack to solve a problem – every time I used an art brush to create a vignette, it didn’t look right. Why? in real-world art, a vignette is defined by the space around the art and not by the art itself. So, with these brushes, I used the negative space around art to create a far more authentic set. Plus, being Affinity vector brushes, they’re easy to use and customizable too.
A few of the many advantages provided by this pack:
- It features real textures from pencils, paint, chalks, pastels, watercolor, ink and more.
- They’re quick and easy to use – enhance your art in seconds.
- Pose and re-pose into almost any shape.
- Combine brush types for wider variety and a mixed media aesthetic.
- Switch art styles with a simple click.
- Combine with artist canvases papers and other backgrounds with ease.
- Plus, they look amazingly authentic!
Grab it now and add those all-important faded edges to any design, illustration or photograph with no fuss!

Purchased a few resources from Artifex Forge, and always been pleased with them. This pack is no different and looks like it will be a nice tool to have in the design kit. Still got a lot to learn with the software so brushes like these can be a real time saver. Wasn’t sure how to achieve a specific task but received great support from Jeremy. No qualms recommending this pack or others from the Artifex Forge.

A great kit which saved me a bunch of time I could have lost trying to make a custom mask with spatter/ watercolour brushes. When I was confused why it wasn’t working immediately I checked the included documentation and it made the solution perfectly clear (reverse path) instantly! Great kit, great documentation and, as always, great service.
