Hi! Ihavebeen working professionally as a comic book coloristsince 2011 and teaching digital coloring online on YouTube since 2013.

I learned about coloring the hard way early on, and I do my best to make sure that no one else has to take the same route I did! I'm still always learning new things and try to bring you guys along with me.

As of 2021, I've colored over a hundred books for publishers such as Image Comics, Vault Comics, Top Cow, IDW, Oni, and many others.

Ive only just started, but Im really enjoying the course so far. The pace is good for me as a beginner and everything is explained clearly. I like the friendly relaxed way it is taught.

By Hannah Wagner on 10/22/2020

Im completely new to procreate and learning to draw in general, and this course made everything seem so much less intimidating. Everything was clear and concise, easy to follow, and enjoyable to watch ?

By Christine Smith on 10/12/2020

New to Procreate and digital art and found the introduction to the functionality very helpful before getting started on some digital artwork. Particularly enjoyed the latter part of the course showing the process of developing work from draft sketching to completion.

Very good class. Easy to follow and a lot of info.

By Neil Myers on 10/5/2020

Good balance between tool and process. I know many tools but struggle with a workflow on how to apply them. This was good for me.

I really enjoyed this course. The instructor is clear, and gives many examples. He also doesn't take himself too seriously. He shows that know matter how long you have been doing something that you can and will still make mistakes and that's ok. I learned a lot from this course and will be starting his Advanced course this afternoon. If you want to learn the basics and some cool tips and tricks in Procreate, this is definitely the course to take.
