Explore how artist Kathy Glynn creates realistic portraits in Procreate. In her class, you’ll learn step-by-step how to use a photo reference to create a realistic portrait in Procreate. This class is perfect for the beginner portrait artist who wants to know “how did they do that?” A basic knowledge of Procreate is all you need to get started. In the end, you will know the tools and the necessary steps to create your own realistic portrait.

In this class, I will share with you the brushes and techniques I use to create a realistic portrait that looks as though you sketched it on paper. I will take you step-by-step through my process of selecting a reference, sketching out the foundation, creating value and form, and adding paper texture to your portrait. I'll provide an overview of value and form and demonstrate how to transform a circle into a sphere in minutes. I’ll also share tips on how you can import layers from previous studies, how to use layer masks, and how to use the smudge tool to create variation in value.

Only a basic knowledge of Procreate is needed to take this class. I recommend that you download the Procreate manual (link in project resources) or take an introduction to Procreate class here on Skillshare. For this class, I am using the Apple Pencil and the most recent version of Procreate (4.3.6) available at the time of filming this class.
