This course provides a foundation in digital watercolour painting on an iPad with Procreate.  We use a simple subject and focus on the techniques that I use to create my paintings so that you may apply them to more complex paintings.  Free brushes included.  A lot of the techniques may seem quite abstract to someone trying it for the first time.  Think of this as a "Start Here" class with respect to digital watercolor painting in Procreate.  This class is meant for both beginners and experienced painters.  If you have experience with traditional watercolour painting, you will be at an advantage simply because you know what you are trying to create.  The subject chosen is intentionally simple so that you can focus on getting the techniques I use down before attempting a more complex subject.  You may download the brushes I created for free using the PDF in the project and resources section, it contains a link to my website where you can download the brushes free of charge.

You do NOT need to know how to draw, I have simplified every part of the process so that anyone can do this.

You will learn:

• How to set up and prepare your reference photo.

• You will learn how to set up your canvas to have a watercolour paper texture.

• You will learn how to apply a base layer to build your painting on. 

• You will learn how to paint with textures that mimic traditional watercolour painting.

• You will learn how to adjust your painting's colour, value and contrast to make it pop.

By the end of this course, you will be able to apply the techniques I use in digital watercolour painting. 

You do not need any previous drawing or painting skills.  If you are an experienced digital painter, I really think you will love my simple approach to completing a painting such as this.

If you are a traditional watercolour painter, you will truly appreciate how much you learn about watercolour painting by digitally painting.  I find that almost every time I make a painting with traditional watercolour or digitally I want to do it the other way.
