Procreate for Absolute Beginners: An In-Depth Intro to iPad Drawing

Procreate for Absolute Beginners is the course to get you started from the very, very beginning. It is for those with no experience using Procreate yet, but who are excited to dive in and master this powerful app.

38 IN-DEPTH LESSONS

We’ll start with the basics, and over the course of 38 in-depth lessons, move through every single function, setting, technique, and shortcut you need to use this app like a pro. By the end of this class, you will have confidence that you’re getting the most out of what Procreate has to offer.

JUMP TO THE LESSON YOU NEED

I have organized the lessons in such a way that you will be able to jump around the course based on your  level and needs. By this I mean that each lesson is self-contained insofar as you can watch them out of order or even skip lessons about skills you already know, focusing on the ones you most need to learn.
