Procreate is a powerful art-making program, but for newbies it can be difficult to navigate or understand how some of the features work. In this class I’m going to reduce the learning curve for beginners by showcasing crucial gesture controls, demonstrating various tools, and offering customization tips.

Beginners will learn processes and tools they can use on a regular basis, including how to:

• Set up canvases and organize their work
• Create custom palettes and use the colour picker
• Create, group, merge, and manipulate layers
• Use the brush, smudge, and erase tools
• Use selection, transformation and adjustment tools
• Adjust global settings, such as gesture and pressure settings, for a better art-making experience

My goal is to get you to a point where you're confidently using the program. I highly encourage that as you watch the class, you keep your iPad handy so that you can explore the tools with me as I showcase them.
