Guide to Digital Painting in Procreate: Landscapes & Plein Air

Unleash the creative power of Procreate to bring outdoor scenes to life on your iPad, from thumbnail designs to final images. With an introduction by BAFTA-award-winning art director, Mike McCain.

In this book for newcomers to the software as well as more accomplished users, several renowned and experienced designers demonstrate plein air painting, sharing not only their professional tips and tricks, but also how the traditional painting process translates to Procreate.

You will become fluent in using Procreate for all stages of outdoor painting - capturing the spirit and essence of a landscape, subject, or building by incorporating natural light, color, and movement into your works. The thorough Getting Started section spotlights the specific Procreate tools, such as Brushes, Layers, and Adjustments, that bring your paintings to life. Perfecting color and nuance of sky, land, and human subjects outdoors is vital, and the Quick Tips section lets you quickly locate and manipulate the tools you need.

Take the opportunity to observe and practice the techniques as part of a real-world workflow, as professional artists demonstrate in seven step-by-step Projects how to use Procreate’s tools to successfully evolve a plein-air painting from initial idea to final masterpiece.
