Class Experience

This is a one-on-one art tutoring class to share tips and tricks in the professional drawing software, Procreate. For 1 hour and 25 minutes you'll have the undivided attention of a professional artist to help you on whatever has you stuck, whether you're new to digital art or you're already a whiz. If you're brand new, let me give you a tour of the program and tools. At the beginning of class, we'll talk about what kind of art you like to make, and how you use Procreate as part of your artistic process. I’ll meet you wherever you are as an artist and technology user, and walk you through ways to improve your digital art and workflow with layers, masks, textures, effects, and tools, as well as a strong foundation in drawing skills and color theory. You’ll need an iPad with Procreate installed and an Apple Pencil. Please plan to have a camera aimed down at your ipad on a tabletop. Phone stands marketed to artists so they can film their art processes are really useful for this, if you have one.

Learning Goals

Learners will improve their ability to plan a layered digital drawing to meet a specific artistic goal.

Supply List
You'll need an iPad with Procreate installed, and you'll need to have an Apple Pencil. No prior knowledge of the program is needed.
You'll need to run the Outschool zoom with a phone on a stand. You can purchase one, or get creative and make a contraption that points the camera straight down at your iPad on the table in front of you. You'll probably need to have the phone screen right under your chin. That lets you see what controls I'm demoing on my iPad at the same time I can see yours.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
