Procreate on your iPad
9 Week Class ONLINE | Available
In this ONLINE course we will focus on using an iPad and Apple pencil to learn all the benefits of Procreate. Procreate is a drawing and painting piece of software that works with iPhones and iPads and will be used for making landscape digital art. Developing a student's personal landscape style will be the foundation of this course. Line and tonal drawing, painting techniques will be specific projects covered throughout the semester.
Alternate storage options for handling your files in-progress and finished works will be advised and demonstrated. Some source images will be provided for students using TSA’s Google drive, however, students will be encouraged to pursue their own personal reference images.
Notes:
- This course is not suitable for a complete beginner - it is designed for students who know how to draw and paint with natural media, with a focus on landscape painting.
- Students need to have their own iPad with a working copy of Procreate and an Apple pencil** (installed, charged and ready for the first class).
- It is recommended to have a separate computer/tablet to view the class and one for working with procreate
- There will be no class on Monday, May 18 due to the Victoria Day holiday.
