  • Every lesson is well-organized and planned with tons of helpful resources.

    Florals for Products course is perfect for anyone wanting to get started in digital graphics. The course is well-paced, starting with many basics of Procreate and drawing from references. It progresses to include more detailed drawings with variety, working with fabulous color palettes, and then to create a final bouquet ready for printing. Denise is very knowledgeable and experienced.

  • Dip your toes into drawing digitally by learning to create leaf shapes in Procreate!

    I learned a few of the many differences between how you approach a digital drawing from my usual medium. I like the ability to divide the drawing into layers, so that if you get one layer perfect, but need to work on the others, there is less lost time.
