It’s acknowledged as one of the best digital painting tools available. Just bring your iPad to the workshop, and download Procreate onto your IPad before you arrive.
It’s a fun introduction to the powerful tools in Procreate. You’ll learn about the myriad of brushes and exciting effects you can use, how to select colours, and save what you’ve done. Jane will show you how to draw and paint on the iPad using reference photos saved on your iPad as well as drawing from observation using your finger or an Apple Pencil. At the end of the workshop you’ll feel confident to draw and paint using Procreate and eager to explore more Procreate tools and techniques in future.
WHAT: Procreate is a digital drawing app available on Apple iPads and is popular amongst digital artists. Procreate is a fantastic software for digital art, but can be a bit overwhelming when it comes to the different tools and techniques!
