Modifying Your Procreate Brushes
“Modifying Your Procreate Brushes“ is a one evening class held on Thursday November 17th, 2022. This is an in-person class taught at The Drawing Studio. Some Procreate experience is useful for taking this class.
Many of the digital brushes included in Procreate may have features turned on that make the brush misbehave when compared to your expectations. In this class, we will examine some of the issues that you may have with the brushes and how to improve their behaviors.

“Making Stamp Brushes in Procreate“ is a one evening session class on Thursday evening October 13th, 2022. This is an in-person class taught at The Drawing Studio. Some Procreate experience is useful for taking this class.
Stamp brushes in Procreate are the digital equivalent of rubber stamps and are a fun way to reuse designs and shapes. Unlike traditional rubber stamps, these Procreate stamp brushes can be dynamically resized and you never drag your sleeves across an ink pad.
