Drawing Fundamentals in Procreate for Beginners
The essential building blocks of digital drawing, taught shape-first. Start here if you are new to Procreate or want to firm up the basics before anything else.

Missed the September Summit?
Learn drawing foundations, playful illustration, style, colour, animation, lighting, and more from 28 artists.
Plus all five free Procreate gift packs to keep.
Free 48-hour Summit access
All 30 sessions. All five free gifts. No credit card.
Random tutorials can teach one trick at a time, but they rarely show how drawing, colour, light, character, style and technique fit together.
The Digital Art Summit brings 30 practical classes into one library, organised from approachable foundations through playful illustration, creative voice and more advanced techniques.
