Live Encore: Troubleshoot Your Color Palette in Procreate

Learn how to play with colors and find your perfect palette for every piece of art.

Color is one of the most fun parts of creating art! And while it’s easy to find colors you love, it can be harder to figure out how to translate that to your own art and choose a palette that makes your piece shine.

Illustrator Brooke Glaser thinks the best way to learn about what colors will work in your art is to try it out! In this 50-minute class—recorded using Zoom and featuring participation from the Skillshare community—she’ll walk you step-by-step through her process of customizing beautiful colour palettes to sketches in Procreate. You’ll get to experiment with two wildly different color palettes to understand some of the issues that can come up with pairing colors together on the page, learning Brooke’s tips and tricks for adjusting your palette as you go. 

This class is great for beginners looking to get more confidence with colors, or anyone who wants to brush up with some color theory in practice. While Brooke will be working in Procreate and this class is probably easiest to follow along digitally, you’ll still learn plenty if you’re working with analog materials.
