Impact Education 2021 - De-Stress By Creating Inspiring Images

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of teaching online, COVID-19, 2020, politics, or just social distancing in general?

Image Source

Take a brain break, practice some self-care, and move beyond your daily challenges by creating holiday or motivational posters with the Procreate app on your iPad.

Participants will walk through adding a few layers and some text, and with the magic of a few brushes and a little creativity, will create some amazing visuals to lighten their spirits.

I hope you are able to join me to explore the Procreate app and make some fun images.

If you missed my session, scroll down to watch the whole process, including some steps that I didn't have time to get to during the conference session.

Examples Of Procreate Fun:

First Attempts

Playing with some of the chalk brushes that come with Procreate and doodling my name.

Exploring Symmetry

Careful - you might not be able to stop playing with this feature.

Holiday Cards

Quickly add wreaths to anything and everything with a few brushes and some layers.

One Word

What is your "One Word" for 2021?

Time Lapse Video

Toggle on the setting to have Procreate record a time-lapse video of your creation.

Video Of The Whole Process From Start To Finish

I ran out of time during my session and wasn't able to finish the entire paper cut out effect and add the bokeh lights.

Watch the video below to follow along with the whole process from start to finish and see the steps I didn't get to during the conference session to create your own "One Word" paper cut out effect image with Procreate.

Share your image on Twitter with the hashtag #ImpactEDU and tag me with @TurnbullChris. I would love to see what you create.
