Resources:

I've included a watercolor texture that you're welcome to use in any of your projects: to download it click on the file on the right.
The Procreate discussion boards are an amazing resource for support, artistic resources, and advice.
The Procreate Artist's Handbook is a free manual and a great reference to using Procreate. I recommend downloading the iBook to your iPad.
You can also dive into the rabbit hole of inspiration and watercolor textures for purchase on Creative Market (70% of your purchase goes to the creator, unlike traditional stock sites).
Pinterest is a great resources for inspiration. Here's a board dedicated to sea creatures. Just keep in mind, use it for inspiration, try not to directly copy.
Skillshare has a Procreate group, which is another great place to share your creations!

Class Project:
I want you to use one of the three techniques to create sea creatures: that could be octopus, sharks, dolphins, heck it could be mermaids! Whatever captures your imagination.

It’s always fun to see before and after pictures, so I encourage you to share your sketches, any time lapses, or other process shots along with your final art. Plus it's good motivation to keep going with the project: if you're feeling intimidated, just start with sharing your sketches.

Remember to include a link to your instagram or portfolio site in the project, so anybody that’s curious about your work can find more from you!
