Time to take that knowledge to the next level! This is a course for students looking to learn advanced techniques and composition for Procreate on the iPad and iPad Pro. Students will learn how to expand their brush library, color pallets, multi layering designs, composition skills and a variety of effects. Each student will draw and design different styles of compositions which we will create and color on their IPad, so their images can either be ready to print or shared digitally with their friends and family.
