In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How to set up your floral painting
- Which tools help you create a beautiful watercolour effect
- How to colour in your flowers and greenery using stamps
- How to draw florals and greenery using brushes in ProCreate 5
- AND SO MUCH MORE!
Key takeaways from this lesson:
- When setting up in the ProCreate app, always place your textures’ layer above the others.
- Make sure to lock the layer you’re working on, in order to avoid painting outside of your already painted pixels.
- You can duplicate your working layer to intensify the colour.
- Use the smudging tool to create a nice blend.
- Setting the blend mode to overlay won’t affect the other pixels.

This is so interesting and I have always hoped to learn how to paint as an artist. I have always beleived that a person had to have a special gift, to be able to paint. I hope I was wrong. Thank you for this opportunity.

Sorry, I spelled believe wrong. Also, I am going to do this course with the paints. I misunderstood, and do not know why, now, about the ipad. Sorry.
