Procreate: Solid Foundations, Part 2 - Beyond the Basics

You only learn Procreate once, so learn it properly!

Treat yourself to a thorough grounding in the tools and techniques that Procreate has to offer. Along the way you'll get tips and advice from someone with nearly 40 years as a digital designer/illustrator.

You created your first artwork in part one and learned about color and brushes. Now it's time to take your knowledge to the next level.

On this course you will:

• Learn how to Select and Transform parts of your picture
• Master the Liquify Tool
• Learn about the Assist tool
• Learn to work quickly with the Quick Menus
• Create straight lines and smooth curves with the Quick Draw tool
• Learn about Alpha Lock, Clipping Masks plus Layer Masks
• Demystify and master Layer Blend Modes
• Learn about Gesture Control and importing PDF files.

There are hundreds - no - thousands of Procreate tutorials out there that show you how to do this or how to paint that. But do you ever get the feeling that there are gaps in your knowledge? How do you know when you've learned all the important stuff? These are the questions that Simon's Procreate: Solid Foundations classes answer.

All you need to bring is Procreate plus ideally an Apple pencil for your iPad and you're set to go. This course is aimed at beginners plus existing users who want to round out their knowledge. But that doesn't mean it's over simplified. Nope! You will learn the same tools and techniques that are used in professional studios.

As well as being a designer/illustrator for decades, Simon also spent time as a teacher and his university degree is all about how people learn. And it is his firm belief that the right way to learn something like Procreate is not to just learn the tools. The right way to learn Procreate is to practice the right workflow, and use the tools when they are needed.

See you on the course!
