Digital Art: Procreate for Beginners (Ages 12-17)

Let’s explore digital tools and unlock fresh, imaginative ways to create amazing artwork!

Let’s explore digital tools and unlock fresh, imaginative ways to create amazing artwork! Procreate is a powerful yet playful digital art app for iPad that expands opportunities for illustration, animation, and creative collage. In this camp, students will discover tips and techniques to help transform their ideas into vibrant, one-of-a-kind digital artworks they can even print and share. Throughout the week, students will learn and practice digitally drawing, coloring, layering, masking, and adding special effects to their artwork. Camp projects will include designing and illustrating original characters, bringing stories to life through comic art, and creating fun, hand-drawn GIF animations that move across the screen. The creative possibilities for Procreate artists are endless! Visual Art Institute has iPads and Apple Pencils available for student use during camp days. If your student has their own iPad and Apple Pencil and would like to bring it, they are welcome to. Please let your student know that there will be no internet browsing allowed during camp, and any required reference photos will be provided by the teacher.
