Hey there! I have spoken about a “Daily Art Practice” before, and I wanted to give you yet another experience with mixed media art in Procreate. This class, Create an Authentic Art Journal Page in Procreate, was a class I created just after having major surgery, and I swear it helped me recover more quickly. I personally find that painting and drawing are great stress relievers. And when it is digital art you are creating, you will never run out if supplies and traditional materials! You can literally be producing this art anywhere and when you are done, just close your iPad. No fuss. No mess. It is a great place to experiment with new techniques and materials too, without breaking the bank. Spending a little money on brushes is far less expensive than visiting the art store for materials, supplies and tools!
If you are new to mixed media in Procreate, focus on the process, rather than the final result. Don’t limit your creativity because drawing lines, mark making, inking and painting all contribute to your final piece. I want to encourage you to enjoy your “me” time and have fun! Play! It is all a part of your development.
If you find the blank screen more/as intimidating as the blank page, take the time to just fill a few documents with textural backgrounds first. I am providing you with brushes to make that “start” easier. Also, be sure to check out the free resources I offer on my website or have given away in previous classes.
This class is a beginner to intermediate class for people who have been using the Procreate app on their iPad with an Apple Pencil for a bit. This class focuses on creating digital art rather than how to art journal (for now – other classes coming soon!). You'll be making your own digital art journal pages using the lessons from this class in the future.
This class, Create an Authentic Art Journal Page in Procreate, will show you some of my illustration methodology as you follow me step-by-step through the process of everything from the bottom up. The background is just the beginning. And, I encourage you throughout to try to make this art uniquely you. That can be accomplished using alternate colors schemes, different brushes, and experiments with textures and layering. That was one of my main goals as I put this class together. I can see many follow up classes in the future to compliment this!
In this class I’ll walk you through:
I know you will be chomping at the bit to create more when you realize this project it so fun and easy. I know will be able to really put your personality into it. I provide several pattern brushes you can use for your backgrounds too, and you can, of course, use one of your own brushes and patterns created in previous classes. I can’t wait to see the diversity that will surely come from this!
The key concepts I will include:
As you develop as an illustrator, you will find that challenging yourself is so satisfying! Learning new Procreate workflows is always desirable. I know you will create something very tactile and organic. Maybe you will think of many other ideas beyond what I have done in class. Be sure to really take a close look at reference!
