I’m excited to share my brand new Skillshare class: Procreate for Absolute Beginners: An In-Depth Intro to iPad Drawing. This course is for artists with no experience using Procreate, who are excited to dive in and master all its powerful tools.

38 In-depth Lessons

In Procreate for Absolute Beginners: An In-Depth Intro to iPad Drawing, I start with the basics, and over the course of 38 in-depth lessons, move through every single function, setting, technique, and shortcut you need to use the Procreate app like a pro. By the end of this class, you will have confidence that you’re getting the most out of what Procreate has to offer.

 
 

Jump to the lesson you need

I’ve organized the lessons in such a way that you can jump around the course based on your  level and needs. Each lesson is self-contained insofar as you can watch them out of order or even skip lessons about skills you already know, focusing on the ones you need to learn most.

 

What my students are saying:

“If you’re a beginner looking to learn Procreate, this is where you start. Molly explains all the functions you will need in such an organized and clear manner.”

— Linda G.

“Perfect for beginners! I feel confident using Procreate now and without this class I likely would’ve given up on the app rather quickly.”

— Cassie F.
