Unlock the power of Procreate with illustrator and digital painting educator Nathan Brown! With over 25 years of experience in both traditional and digital media, Nathan shows you how to translate your design skills into an approachable, intuitive illustration workflow. From rough sketching to finishing touches, this course guides you step-by-step through creating polished artwork, even if you think you’re “not good at drawing.”

This beginner-friendly course is geared at designers, illustrators, and creatives who want to add hand-drawn illustration and painting to their toolkit. You’ll explore the Procreate app at a manageable pace, experiment with brushes, layers, textures, typography, and animation, and follow along with practical projects. Plus, if you’ve used Adobe Creative Suite before, you’ll already have a head start on concepts like layers and blending modes.
