Course Description

In this course you will learn about the Procreate app and iPad in two fundamental ways. You will watch me explain the interface while demonstrating the hand gestures that are used to complete various tasks. You will learn how to import and export images, flip the canvas, share the work in various formats, export video, setup the perspective tools, and adjust the interface to your preference.
In the next section Iwill take you through a complete illustration from start to finish. This will allow you to see and work through the process of creating the illustration and commit it to memory. You will learn about the brushes, layers, blending modes, lock transparency, selection tools, color adjustments, and general tips and tricks on painting various effects with texture.
By the end of this course you will have created a fun and informative art project. Iwould love to see what come up with and Iwould be happy to give you any feedback I can. Just share the work in the Q+A Section when you are done!
You also get access to Custom Procreate Brushes + Art Files that Ihave created to help you make a variety of effects!
Update - Ihave also added a section on Creating a Custom Hair and Fur Brush! This is a very important aspect of Digital Art. Creating brushes like these can save huge amounts of time and provide great results.
Thank you and Ihope you enjoy this course! Let me know if you have any questions along the way.

Every single thing you teach me is a thing I've previously messed up. For that, I am grateful. Even though I am strictly a hobbies, I want to good pieces. You are helping me to get there.

This was a really great course to learn how to navigate pro create and to digital paint a character. The tutor responds to message and is clear and easy to follow throughout the course. Its made so much easy that he gives you the same brushes he uses during the course too. Highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to unleash the artist within

A bit fast

By Arthur Mills on 7/20/2020

I am new to Procreate and taking this course provides a good beginning to understanding some of the most basic concepts. I also liked that he sometimes showed more than one way to do some things. That way if you have a personal preference or needed a different way to achieve a certain effect you had more options. Appreciated that there was thought and organization to the lessons to make it easier to go step by step. As a bonus his voice is pleasant and the lessons have enough enthusiasm to not be boring! :)

Great job Rob is awesome

By Rebecca Gerhart on 6/17/2020

Very clear and informative. He goes a bit fast, which isnt altogether bad and is often ideal, but its the only reason why I havent given the course 5 stars (but he cant know when I need him to speed up and slow down, so I could just be picky here!)

Learned a lot from this video

By Martin Krkoska on 5/10/2020

I like the voice, speed and the way of teaching. And after watching whole course I was able use Procreate really well and with confidence. Thanks for this course.

Easy to understand and well explained. I have read through the online procreate manual and explored procreate by myself, but still learned several tips and tricks from the video.
