Class Description:

Explore the magical world of Procreate as we use this incredible technology to enhance our creative process and expand our artistic capabilities.

Are you a traditional artist frustrated or intimidated by technology? Are you looking to develop a skill that could be beneficial to your creative process? Do you have an Ipad? Are you wondering how to begin using it as a creative outlet? Join me in a deep dive into the magical world of Procreate! This is your chance to learn an affordable and user friendly program. Learn to use Procreate as a sketchbook, take it on vacation with you when you can’t fit your paints, go to museums and digitally paint from the masters, work out color studies, and create original digital art. In this class, we will use this platform to expand on the fundamentals of drawing and painting. I will gently guide you through the general settings, shortcut keys, strategies for constructing a workspace, brushes, and basic operations of Procreate.
