Description
Procreate is a mighty art and illustration tool! It has such a rich set of features. Among these features is the ability to animate—in Procreate! Which is crazy. The fact that you can create amazing illustrations and animations using just one app on your iPad is mind-blowing.
Being able to animate is a fantastic and super versatile skill to have in your tool belt. It's fun. It adds life to your work. And it opens up a new world of possibilities. With this new skill you'll be able to:
Create storyboards.
Breathe life and movement into your artwork.
Create fun animations to bring your work more attention + engagement.
The class has been updated in 2023 (with a lot more content and material). It covers both practical and theoretical aspects of animating in Procreate. If you're new to the world of animation I break everything down and explain things in an approachable way. The class covers the following topics:
Animation basics
Animating in Procreate
Creating looping animations
Animating existing artwork
Export GIFs, animated PNGs, and videos
A bunch of Procreate tips and tricks
Having some experience in Procreate will help, but you should be able to pick things up pretty quickly if you're new to Procreate. If introducing movement and life into your work sounds like fun, come take the class!
I can't wait to see what you create!

Hey! I’m a multi-hyphenate artist who’s authored books, spoken at conferences, and taught thousands of students online. I simply love creating—no mater if it’s painting murals, illustrating NFTs on Adobe Live, coding websites, or designing merch. My art is bold and colourful and draws inspiration from childhood fantasies. I have ADHD but am not defined by it, dance terribly, and can touch my nose with my tongue.
History
I’ve studied multimedia design and graphic design. I’ve taught myself how to code. I've freelanced, worked for agencies and startups, and run my own product design studio. I’m a published author and a full-time artist. I used to go by the name TapTapKaboom—that’s now a separate thing teaching people how to make websites.
Seeing what you create and how you change your life because of what I teach makes me warm and fuzzy. So, thank you! Please keep on sharing your work, reviews and stories.
Philosophy
At the core of my creation philosophy is play and experimentation. I love learning and don’t mind being wrong. I’m an advocate for pursuing big dreams by taking small, intentional and often repetitive steps. Don’t have a big dream? Then I advise play and experimentation—be curious, and try it all.
