'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 plus brand new digital techniques? Why not use these never before seen techniques and work your way through a series of projects with me to speed up your art journey?

'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. You will be learning time honoured techniques that most artists will recognise when they learned to draw. But you will also be learning 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 practice drawing techniques here that no one has ever seen before. 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 have a series of projects that we will be working on together. We will cover the basics like making marks efficiently, volumetrics, perspective, shading etc. We will also produce a series of finished sketches and drawings together.

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...'

I'm Simon. 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. Now I'll teach you to draw in the digital age using Procreate.

I'll see you on the course,

Simon
