Loved this video! Always enjoy watching you draw (very envious of your talent). In 2022 I received an iPad as a gift. Knowing nothing about digital art or Procreate I searched CZcams for information and I stumbled upon your channel. I am so glad I did. I have drawn along with many of your videos and that taught me more than I could have imagined. After months of CZcams "tutorials" I was able to write and illustrate my first three children's books with a fourth on the way. Thank you so very much for your channel. I come back often to see what's new. By the way, my food truck name is Odd Seagull. I look forward to working on that. Thanks again!

I used the same brushes with similar colors and it did not turn out rightđ€Łđ
Really appreciateđ«¶đ«¶ This video navigated me a lot Thank youđ„ș really love your artwork
Doesnât work, rather use photoshop
just what i needed. thank you!
Yarn it was so fun to make
Oh digital đ the day has come when I realise that I have to type in â painting with paint â . Painting involves paint in my world though your digitally created pearls look beautiful
Cartoon
practice day 1, this really helped me
Yay! đ„ł
Can we pick colour from image while using hipaint . If yes then how
I have found an angel
How aren't they like thousands of comments already đ
đ„čđ€
This video is beyond amazing! Thank you for some great advice. Iâve drawn and done cartoons for years but only recently got into digital art. Of all the videos Iâve seen on procreate, yours has definitely been the most helpful :)
Thank you SO MUCH! Glad you found the video helpful đđ€
Thanks!!
What app is this?
Just love it! Thanks đ
WHY on earth are people nasty on You TUBE ??!? Ugh I appreciate and enjoy all of the artists I follow- you are one of my fav so thank you for doing what you are doing and please know that you are. valued and appreciated!
Thank you so much, Cheryl! It means a lot đ„čđ€ People are mostly nasty on short form content. Might be a different audience, might be bots⊠not sure whatâs up but itâs not fun haha
Wow! Thank you sooo much for this content.

I didn't miss a page I mIsSeD tHe WhOlE cHaPtEr đđ
I just started to learn digital art, recently bought my first iPad with it's pencil, go to youtube and searched for procreate tutorial and found this channel, however, when I try to draw I can't seem to getting used to drawing on a glass screen, its just too slippery, I'm not using a matte/paperlike screen protector because I don't want to decrease the screen's sharpness, any idea or suggestion to overcome this issue? because I saw that you probably didn't use matte/paperlike screen protector either. Anyway nice artwork!
Oh nah you so fast đą
I liked this format, and enjoyed hearing about your thought processes. As someone who started drawing and painting before digital graphics, I really appreciate being able to experiment by using layers, turning them on and off, moving and scaling elements and adjusting colors as I go along rather than having to envision the final product and working towards that. For someone with a perfectionist tendency, this is so freeing! I really appreciate all that Iâve picked up from your tutorials, Genevieve! Thanks!!
Loved it Genevieve. I love all your content! Started with my own for this challenge but my pencil tip is scratching up my screen protecter đź hopefully I can find my spares. Kinda bummed bc I was excited to draw something carefree and work on overcoming my perfectionist side. Thanks for this great video, and how fun about your sheep!
Im understanding the steps but whats the margin and the bleed again?
Thankyou so mucht for this tutorial!
This was so much fun to watch! I am nerd when it comes to the process of creating. I love it! I have learned so much from you. I am drawing things now I never thought I would because of the way you break things down and start with shapes. I love the drawing exercise quizzes you came out with, I think finding the drawing in the messy shapes was my favorite! I would like to add I am going into nursing school soon and before I do that I have to take an anatomy class. I am dyslexic and memorizing things??!! Panic! So I decided in order to help me through that, I am going to draw everything (and who knows maybe make some fun art out of it?). Drawing really helps me learn, so thank you for all you do!

Hi, I'm Shree from India...đ I've been drawing from a really young age, but I've never been consistent in learning and developing my skills. I just drew when and how I wanted. It's been two years since I'm dipping into digital art as well... and I have been watching your tutorials since then. Due to circumstances, I've had huge gaps in the past in my practicing process... Anyway, what I'm rambling about and trying to say is that your videos have helped me a lot. So... Thank you... đ While I totally agree with you about being intuitive and carefree (messy is good word in this scenario) when illustrating, I also like the organized way you teach us because, when I have an idea, my head becomes so convoluted that that makes me paralyzed. So, your step by step "recipes" helped me organize my thoughts, and then I changed it, as you said in this video. I guess it depends on the artist and what works for them. Through trial and error, finding your own process... finding a balance between messy and organized... I'm sorry that I didn't comment before. I don't comment anywhere. I don't like to talk much, most days... just lazy I think. But this year, I've decided to be consistent, vocal, and more engaged (?)... but it's a long journey with lots of lows (for me) and some highs, and I am grateful that there's a good artist/person like you who I can look up to... đ So... thank you for making fun videosđ (And... I said I don't like talking so muchđ). Be well...
So happy to see a new upload from you! đ You are a big part of my illustration journey; iâve learnt so much from you! Thank you Genevieveđ
You are such a humble and talented artist. You inspire me. Thank you for creating and sharing.
You're truly an inspiring artist. today I was struggling with being a perfectionist, and I got really upset. Then I saw your video, and really your words touched me, I appreciate that you're sharing something like this it felt that oh. I'm not alone, thank you so much
I don't know if I am doing something wrong but the hair shadow thing doesn't work like yours it turns blue and then the color of the entire drawing change instead of the blop that I selected
This was so much fun and helpful!
Yay! Glad you liked the video, Franziska!
Hello, I want to print children book independently. Could you please tell me about the settings at the beginning of procreate. The size, resolution is 300, and the color is CMYK. After the drawing is completed, I want to put it into Adobe Indesign. I have tried converting it to PSD, JPEG, PNG and TIFF in procreate and sending it via email. Then opened it on my computer and put it into Indesign, but the resolution of the file will be lower than 300, the printing house told me it must be 300 resolution. I also want to know if there will be any color difference when the file is transferred from procreate to Indesign? How can this be checked? I would like to ask if there is a tutorial on the children book file production process from procreate to Indesign. I am willing to pay to learn from you. thank you.
Thanks so much for your teaching and your generosity â„â„â„
You are so kind, thank you đ„čđ€

This has inspired me to go back and finish your course! I got discouraged (no matter how many times in the course you said not to) about being so beginner. I love your course so much and I am excited to get going again. Thank you, Genevieve!! Also, motherhood looks so wonderful on you. I love your hair length and color. â„ïž
Oh, how wonderful, Annie đ The course can be quite intense, that's for sure. I'm looking forward to connecting with you on the forum đ€
I think your lettering is great ! This is a nice video and a really cute drawing. Havenât seen your video for some time and Iâm glad youâre back đ
Very interesting video. I love all your videos and all these tips are also great to watch.
Hi can I ask what year of ipad or what kind of generation are you using?
iPad Pro 2018, 12.9â đ
New horizons!! This is such an amazing easy to follow tutorial đ©”đ©”
Hi Genevieve, it is nice to watch what you are doing. But i have to say that doesen't help me in my drawing at allđđ im so sorry to say that. I waited for 1 Jear to see a new Video because your way go explain and teach is soooo unich. I loved it and with your help i drawed by my self and did not copy and color other artworks. So i yust want to tell you that i miss teaching videosđâ€. All the love and best wishes to you and your little Family. Sonjađđ
Hi Sonja! That's totally ok đ I posted a regular step-by-step tutorial a couple of weeks ago, and will post another one in two weeks đ
