A Four-Part Beginner Series in October/Nov 2026
Discover the creative possibilities of Procreate in this relaxed, practical series designed for complete beginners. Across four engaging sessions, you'll learn the essential tools and techniques needed to create your own digital artwork on the iPad.
Each session introduces new skills through step-by-step demonstrations and hands-on creative projects, helping you build confidence as you explore drawing, layers, colour, tracing, editing and digital effects.
Whether you're new to digital art or looking to make the most of your iPad, this series will provide a solid foundation and the inspiration to continue creating long after the course has finished.
For these workshops you will need an Ipad with Procreate installed. An apple pencil would also be useful but not necessary (bring your fingers). Please make sure that your device is fully charged when attending.
