I use Procreate to create illustrations for brands like Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co. and Sephora. Now I want to teach you everything I know! â¨
The only difference between my custom-made Procreate brushes and the real ones is that the real ones will empty your wallet and ruin your iPad. đ
Made by sampling real brush strokes, these brushes will make your digital paintings look like the real ones!
Since most 3D models that you can find on the internet aren't configured to be Procreate compatible, trying to find the ones that are could be a huge hassle. Instead of spending hours browsing the web, get instant access to these high-value packs.

I'm happy to present a new product line for iPad digital artists - designed in collaboration with OptishieldŠ
All You Need is an iPad, a Pencil and my Procreate Classes!
Youâll learn the essentials of Procreate layers and brushes and put them to use in practical exercises. By enrolling to the courses, youâll be able to draw the paintings above.
â
Do it as a hobby or level-up as a freelancer. Using knowledge youâll gain throughout this course, Iâve been able to sell my art to Sephora, Kate Spade NY, Tiffany&Co., Mango, Pomelo and many others.Â
â
And I can teach you all the basics you need to start, as soon as you want. Do it all in one sitting or take it easy and learn at your own pace.Â
My name is Freya Kotchakorn and Iâve been a professional digital artist for over 15 years. Working with some of the leading brands in their respective fields has gained me quite some know-how that I donât mind sharing.
â
In fact, Iâve become so proficient at it, that Iâm now teaching hundreds of other aspiring artists such as yourself and presenting at iPad drawing events in Apple stores.
â
Since a lot of my students find the Procreate Masterclass course, they also enroll in my Portrait Academy to take their Portrait digital art to the pro level.
â
Many of them have even come so far as to start working with popular clients as freelancers or employees.Â

As an illustrator, I love to draw and paint using pencils, paintbrushes or water colors and paper. This is what I was trained to do at University of Arts and this is what I have been doing ever since.
However, when aiming for a digital output, painting by hand is terribly time-consuming. The time it takes you to scan and die cut your finished product can sometimes take as long as it took you to paint your artwork in the first place.
And letâs be honest ⌠the digitalized version of your art never looks quite as good as the actual artwork.
â
With Procreate, you can achieve the same result much quicker. And since you donât need any painting accessories, no computer, no separate drawing pad and no scanner, you can practically work anywhere.Â
Do you commute a lot? Why not use the time you spend on public transport for your artwork? Fancy a day at the park? Bring your iPad and squeeze in some painting.
â
Besides painting by hand, Iâve also used other traditional software like Adobe Photoshop and Iâve turned Adobe Illustrator inside-out. But none gave me the freedom Procreate offers.
Have you ever tried learning on your own? If youâre anything like me, you will quickly realize how difficult it is to learn without proper guidance. At least thatâs what I experienced some three and a half years ago when I switched from Photoshop and Illustrator to Procreate.
The app offers you countless possibilities ⌠but if youâre thrown into using it with no proper insight, it can quickly get overwhelming.Â
After countless hours of searching for quality Procreate classes when I first started, Iâve come to realize there are two kinds of courses available.Â
Some go really in-depth and share heaps of theoretic knowledge, but leave you without the proper idea of how to apply it. Others just throw you right into the drawing process, instructing you to blindly follow the teacherâs instructions without providing any background knowledge.
Thatâs why I decided to combine the two approaches together. Youâll get enough theory to get you properly started, and continue with two practical exercises. Doing those, youâll have to use the knowledge and techniques you've learned before.Â
Another detail I focused on is finding the right tempo. When learning from others, the pace of the course quickly overwhelmed me, and I had to hit that pause button after nearly every sentence. And for a beginner, that can be pretty frustrating.
This is why I chose the method that lets you follow your own tempo. Mainly, you should be able to follow the calm narration just fine , but should you feel the need to use some extra time, you can pause the video at any time.
