Section 1: Understanding Procreate

What is Procreate?
Procreate, an award-winning app developed by Savage Interactive in Tasmania, is
designed exclusively for iOS, offering a rich canvas for artists to sketch, paint,
and illustrate. While it shares similarities with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, it
stands apart, offering a raster graphics editor, which means it works with pixels
rather than mathematical formulas, which is the case with Illustrator. Moreover, it is
more focused on creating original art compared to Photoshop, which is primarily
used for photo editing.

A Brief History
The inception of Procreate brought the power of desktop creative tools to the
fingertips of artists, offering a natural drawing experience with a wide array of
brushes and the ability to create and add your own. This innovation has won the
hearts of many artists, from novices to experienced professionals, offering a feeling
akin to drawing on paper.

Section 2: The Benefits of Using Procreate


Procreate not only facilitates the creation of stunning digital art but also offers a
gallery format to organize your artwork, easy integration with existing workflows, and
the ability to create art much faster compared to physical mediums. Its flexibility and
feature-rich environment allow you to develop a unique art style, truly your own.
