Learning to draw, all over again
When I first got an iPad and Procreate, I had years of experience as an artist. I thought if I learnt the software, I'd be able to draw beautiful art. But after months of learning I was faced with a humbling truth - I didn't really know how to draw.
What followed was a period of retracing steps and rebuilding skills. It was only once I'd focused on drawing fundamentals that I was able to get good results in Procreate.
This course is designed to give you the foundation and confidence to draw anything while learning Procreate along the way. Hope you can join me!
