What you need
Steps
Open Procreate and tap the plus icon in the top right to create a new canvas. Pick a preset size or enter your own width and height.
Set the resolution to 300 DPI for print-quality work or leave it lower for quick sketches. Choose RGB color profile for screen art.
Tap the wrench icon to open Actions, then Canvas, and check your canvas settings. You can also turn on time lapse recording here.
Tap the brush icon to open the brush library. Choose a sketching pencil first, then swap to an inking brush for clean lines.
Open the Layers panel and tap the plus to add a new layer. Keep your sketch on one layer and your line art on another.
Lower the opacity of the sketch layer so you can trace over it cleanly on the new layer above.
Tap the color circle to open the color picker. Pick a color from the disc or enter a hex code for exact shades.
Draw your artwork, using two fingers to undo and three fingers to redo when you make a mistake.
Tap the wrench icon, then Share, to export your finished piece as a PNG, JPEG or PSD file.
Tips and common mistakes
Keep each part of your drawing on its own layer so you can fix mistakes without redrawing everything.
Set the canvas to 300 DPI before you start if you plan to print the artwork later.
Use a screen protector or matte film if the Apple Pencil feels too slippery on the glass.
Questions
Do I need an Apple Pencil to use Procreate?
No, you can draw with your finger or any compatible stylus. An Apple Pencil gives you pressure sensitivity and smoother lines.
What canvas size should a beginner use?
The default screen-size preset is fine for practice. For prints, use 300 DPI and a size close to your final print dimensions.
Can I undo a mistake in Procreate?
Yes, tap two fingers on the canvas to undo and three fingers to redo. You can also use the undo arrow in the top toolbar.
