Class Experience

In this self-paced crash course students will learn different tips, tricks, and skills to become masters in Procreate! 

There are no live meetings in this class - but I am just a message or e-mail away if you need any help or run into any problems! We can always problem solve/brainstorm any issues together.

There are 15 videos/classes in this course - 3 videos a week over 5 weeks is a great pace, but you complete them at a pace that works best for you! 

You are not 'required' to turn anything in, but I would love to to see your artwork/creations throughout the course!  If you choose to share, I will not critique your work - instead I will provide individual praise and positive feedback. 

In every video we will work on new skills and use them to create a 'project of the day' - we will also reference skills we have learned in previous videos. 

Week 1: Intro to Procreate!
~~~~~~Day 1: Canvas, brushes, sizes, transparency, finger tap short cuts, colors
~~~~~~Day 2: Exact shapes and lines, color fill, creating groups in gallery,
~~~~~~Day 3: Layers, moving layers, combining layers, clipping mask, share/export

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Why choose a self paced class over live meetings?
- You are able to watch the recorded class videos at any time on your own schedule.
- You can pause and rewind as needed - allowing you to work at your own pace (if something is easy jump ahead to the next video, if something is a little tricky re-start the video and try again).
- You can come back and reference the recorded class videos if you forget, or need help, on a skill or project we worked on.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello Families!

My name is Nicole - my students usually call me Ms. Cole. I graduated from ASU Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts with a double major in Design Studies - with a focus in 3D modeling and digital fabrication; and the other in Art Studies - with a focus in fashion and studio art. 

I have a passion for the arts and really enjoy creating with clay and drawing in my free time. I love teaching fashion, drawing, and art classes; as well as early learning foundations for preschool and pre-k. 

I am a multi-certified lead teacher for toddlers, preschool, and pre-k. I taught preschool and pre-k for five years, and I absolutely loved it! 

I am a homeschool mom to my amazing daughter who keeps me on my toes and helps me come up with exciting new class ideas all the time. 

I can't wait to see you in class!



**Recording Policy**
For everyone's privacy and safety I do not release our class recordings. Learners tend to share location/private/personal details during our meetings, and I will always ensure learner privacy in our classroom.
