Are you ready to learn about all of Procreate's hidden features? Unlock Procreate's full potential by mastering gestures! In this video, you'll learn 30 different Procreate gestures and shortcuts that will save you time and help you become a master Procreate artist. I'll show you how to manipulate the interface, organize brushes and files, invoke secret menus, speed up your workflow, and more. I'll even teach you how to fix a very common problem with gestures: what to do when Color Drop is not working. Gestures will help you work with the canvas, brushes, layers, colors, and more!

MAKE ART EVERYDAY // I believe that creativity can make a profound impact on people's lives, no matter their skill level. If I could offer one piece of advice about establishing a daily art-making habit, it would be to make it as easy as possible for you to create. Make your tools accessible, and remove any barriers that might stop you from doing it. With the iPad and Procreate, you have hundreds of tools, and every color imaginable at your disposal. Make art anytime, anywhere.
