Description

'What do I do first? Learn how to use Procreate or learn how to draw?'Why not do both? And why not learn from a successful pro who's being using digital art software for decades? Why not learn how to draw using both traditional and digital techniques? Why not use never before seen techniques that harness the power of the digital age to speed up your art journey?Enroll on my latest, most ambitious course and find out just how well I can answer these questions for you. I've been a designer/illustrator for over 35 years. I used the first Apple computers capable of creating digital art. I've spent thousands of hours working in various design studios, worked with hundreds of clients and used many, many digital art programs. I've produced art and design for a who's who of top businesses. You may also have seen my artwork on games that have been number 1 all over the world.I'm also the author of Procreate: Solid Foundations which occupies the number 1 slot out of all the Procreate courses on Udemy. Now I'll teach you to draw using Procreate.'I can draw fairly well but how do I transfer what I know to a digital art app?'Please, take the time to read the next couple of sentences because they are at the very core of the course philosophy. I will be teaching you time honoured techniques that most artists will recognise when they learned to draw. But over the years I have also developed those ideas plus invented new techniques that harness the power of digital technology. Traditional artists will see techniques they know. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But I promise you this - you will see drawing techniques here that no one has ever seen before. Over the years I've developed many strategies to practice digital art, meet deadlines, maximise the potential of digital art, and work in ways that simply aren't possible with traditional media.Drawing is the cornerstone of art. Being able to see something and reproduce that image on a screen is what this course is all about. I cover drawing basics, making marks efficiently, volumetrics, perspective, shading etc.By the end of the course you will have mastered various effective drawing techniques, traditional and digital. You will gain the confidence to tackle your own art projects, and one day soon you may well be looking at one of your own creations and thinking 'That looks fantastic! I did that…'Enrol now. Don't forget you have the 30 day money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose and so much to gain. Learn how to draw using Procreate from someone who knows what's important and knows how to teach. Feel free to check out the ratings and reviews of my other courses. I've brought the past 8 years of making these courses to this one, and I feel that this course is my best yet. So get ready to be an artist. Get ready to make your work shine!I'll see you on the course,Simon
