Description
This is a course all about creating beautiful watercolors in Procreate. Watercolor can be a challenging way of painting - you need the right tools, techniques and to understand the nature of watercolor. I've used real life watercolors for many years so I can explain how they work, plus I have developed multiple new digital techniques especially for this course!I'll take you right from initial brush strokes using the dozens of different brushes you get with the course. You'll practice your first brushstrokes using various sketches, color swatches and files that I supply. Then I take you through a series of follow along tutorials which give you increasingly advanced techniques and resources. Some of these techniques and resources you won't have seen before. That's because I've used my 35+ years experience as a professional designer/illustrator to create brand new directions using the tools Procreate gives us.As well as over 4 hours of follow along/have a go yourself tuition, I'm giving you: 35 new watercolor brushes plus 72 brush heads, 22 watercolor splats, 56 watercolor splotches, 14 watercolor stencils, 12 watercolor textures, 18 white plus 18 gray paper textures, 20 pieces of line art to practice with, 52 color swatches based off real world paints, and 256… new ways of working with color. You are getting serious value for money with The Procreate Watercolor Masterclass.This course is also a masterclass in using layer blend modes, clipping layers, layer masks plus various layer adjustments.
