Introduction to Digital Painting
Class | Available
This class will be a comprehensive course on learning to paint in Digital. Topics will be covered from the ground up, including menus and technical information. It is okay if you've never worked in digital before! We will be painting skulls, anatomy, basic painting exercises as well as sketching portraits and figures.
- **Prerequisites**
-You will need a device to paint on. Computers will not be provided.
Approved devices include iPad, Surface Pro, Laptop w/ digital tablet.
Prior to the class, any research you can do on your particular setup to get comfortable with it before class starts is recommended.
- iPad with Procreate is preferred for this class, but if students want to use a laptop with a tablet that is okay.
Recommended Software:
-Procreate for iPad users
-Krita, Clip Studio or Photoshop CC (modern version) for students with laptop/tablet.
-Please do not use the program HeavyPaint or Infinite Painter as I do not have proficiency with these programs. If using either of these, software-specific help I will be able to give will be limited.
