Learn to master Procreate from scratch with Linda Laforge, experienced computer graphics instructor and portrait artist known as a live digital caricaturist. This informative and fun series will begin with the basics, starting with the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil then focusing entirely on Procreate, a revolutionary tool to develop professional level creations. No previous experience necessary!

There will be Four Lessons to Ignition! We’ll lay the groundwork by analyzing the synergy between Procreate, the iPad Pro, and the Apple Pencil, and why this is the perfect combination for tackling illustration projects. Participants will receive tips on additional tools and accessories to enhance and improve their work and experience. You’ll tour the program’s many brushes and drawing tools to create your own digital sketches and discover how to add images, text, edit your canvas, share images, record your drawing process, and so much more. We’ll explore filters and features such as Blur, Liquify, Recolor, and basic image editing functions.**Participants will complete one digital illustration or painting and learn to save the file in multiple formats.
