Korshub's take
Overview
Rather than choosing between traditional watercolor and digital painting, this class shows how to combine both, using an iPad alongside real watercolors to get the best of each medium. The instructor treats the meditative feel of physical paint and the versatility of the iPad as complementary rather than competing tools, and shares how she moves between the two without the join ever feeling forced.
Who It's For
Painters with some experience in watercolor or Procreate who want to blend the two mediums into one natural-looking process.
Key Takeaways
- Using an iPad to strengthen a traditional watercolor painting
- Masking techniques in Procreate
- How to blend hand-painted watercolor and digital work so the transition feels natural
About this course
I'm a sucker for painting: it's meditative and incredibly satisfying to create with watercolors. And the textures are difficult to mimic digitally. But the iPad is also incredibly versatile.
But who says you have to choose one or the other: the iPad or painting with watercolors? In this class I share how to take advantage of both digital and traditional mediums and combine them. I share tips for using your iPad to create better watercolor paintings, masking techniques in Procreate, and how to blend both painting styles together naturally.
