Procreate Brush Academy: Create and Customize Digital Paint Brushes

Expand your digital art and illustration skills in this Procreate app class. This is class is appropriate for both beginners and learners with experience using the Procreate app on their iPads.

*Please note that at this time, Procreate is only available for Apple devices. Students MUST have the Procreate app installed on their device prior to class to be able to take it. It's ok if students need to use the same device for both Zoom and Procreate. A stylus of some kind is helpful but not necessary.

We'll begin our class with introductions and then we'll start customizing some digital paint brushes! Students will learn how to create a new folder in the brush library, how to add brushes to their folder, how to customize existing brushes, and how to create totally new brushes. Examples of brushes we will create include: an outline brush, a drop shadow brush, a rainbow brush, and a shape brush.  At the end of class, we will take a few minutes to share our creations and reflect on what we are proud of and what we found challenging.

Students are encouraged to ask questions or let me know if they are having trouble at any time! I share my screen throughout class so students can see exactly how to navigate the app and can follow along in real time. I pause between steps to give everyone a chance to complete them and love seeing what students come up with.
