Procreate Brushes and Layers: A Crash Class for Beginners
A single class for ages 9 to 14 who have Procreate and are not sure where to start. Children learn the tools that matter most and use them in one finished drawing.
Class Experience
The teacher gives a guided tour: the five brushes worth knowing, how layers work and three time-saving gestures. Children then apply it all in a simple illustration of a potted plant with a shadow and highlights.
How classes work
This is a single 55-minute live class with up to 5 learners. The teacher demonstrates, learners take part, and everyone shares at the end.
