Creator essentials for character designer Audrey Hopkins, who thrills her TikTok followers with whimsical and weird drawings on her Audity channel.
Audity, the popular TikTok star, shares her essential tools for creating whimsical and silly digital art on her channel Audity. Character designer Audrey Hopkins, along with her husband Richard Conley, thrives on drawing inspiration from movies, TV, music, and her husband to craft unique and often sexy characters. Using her iPad Pro and Apple pencil, Hopkins creates a variety of illustrations, including Soda Pop hunk inspired by KPop Demon Hunters, state illustrations as people, and creative reimaginings of her husband in various forms.
Hopkins also creates cartoon character mash-ups, such as Beauty and the Beast's Lumiere with Child's Play's Chucky. In a joint interview at Vidcon 2026, Audity and Conley revealed their digital drawing essentials. Hopkins emphasizes that her iPad Pro is indispensable, as it's the device on which she draws. Conley adds that the iPad Pro is indeed crucial, and Hopkins agrees, mentioning that Conley handles the technical aspects while she focuses on the creative process.
Hopkins also highlights the importance of her Apple pencil's thick grip, which helps alleviate muscle pain and strain caused by extensive drawing. She recommends that other artists suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome invest in a pencil grip to reduce physical discomfort while creating their art.
