- In this video, I'll explain how to put your imported line art onto a transparent layer in Procreate. I did a video on this a while back, but here's the microwave version. Line art by Rebekah Isaacs!
Get my full Procreate courses at the link below.
Steps:
Add a layer on top. Fill with black.
Add mask to black layer.
Copy the line art layer.
Select the mask on black layer, 3-finger swipe down, paste.
Invert the mask & merge into the black layer. (Pinch the layers!)

THIS VIDEO HAS SINGLE HANDEDLY REVIVED MY DIGITAL ART CAREER FROM NOTHINGNESS
i CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH
Thank you so much! For those that don’t know, to merge the two layers together just pinch both highlighted layers tougher and they will merge!
Omg thank you I was going crazy, I wish he explained this in the video.
omg thank you!!!!
I was trying to figure this out as well, but I ended up selecting the second layer and then from the pull down menu selecting ‘merge mask’ which seemed to do the trick as well 💯
Best tutorial on the internet. Hands down. Short, informative, to the point.
u literally revived my art career, for a hot minute i was pondering on how to do this because of my strong pencil work on paper and lack of solid sketching in digital, u a Godsend thank you!
i spent countless hours playing with the automatic selection tool as my project has a lot of motion blur and noise to add effects to the design and couldn't figure this out. this has given me the most amazing amount of relief thank you so much!
THANK YOU! This tutorial needs to have more visibility. You’ve just improved my workflow 1000x ❤️
Oh my god, thank you so much 😭 like actually, I cannot describe how much this saved my butt
Putting this in my reference links. Making this the reference layer for colorfill makes things pretty speedy. Thank you!
Love these videos. Super helpful!
THANK YOU! Exactly what I needed and you did it in literally one minute. Seriously appreciate it! Worked like a charm.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I do a lot of coloring using Procreate, and up until now I’ve had to redraw every single drawing on a new transparent layer. This is a HUGE time saver!
One suggestion: if your file has a background layer, fill it with black also. Otherwise your line drawing will be too light.
This is FANTASTIC! Thank you!
I was trying to figure this out on my own for so long, but thank God we have you!! Thank you so much for sharing!
The tutorial I’ve been looking for and it was made two years go! 😂😂 Thank you so freaking much for this!!!
Been searching for months for how to do this, thank you for sharing this technique!
thank you for this!!!!!!!
Thanks so much! I’m practicing with coloring and this saves so much of my time 😆
This saved me. Thank you for this!
OMG… freaking brilliant! Thanks for sharing!
👏👏👏👏 I love you man!
OHHH MYYYY GOOSSHHHH THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
This is SO APPRECIATED!!!!! I am so freaking grateful!!!!!
I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am that you’ve shared this 💜 I grew up very fluent in using Paint Tool Sai, which had its own function to turn white/bright pixels transparent at the click of a button. I’ve been using Procreate for nearly 4 years now, and of course in the beginning I was disappointed to realise that button wasn’t available on Procreate, but especially as someone who tends to use very textured brushes now, just using the selection tool to separate a sketch from a white background would never have the right outcome, as you can imagine it would remove too many integral pixels and it would lose its pencil-like texture. This method with the masks however is a huge game changer for me, especially as I often look back through my time lapses and realise I preferred one of the first sketches in my drawing process, now I can screenshot them from the video replay and use this method to bring the sketches back into my piece without any evidence it was ever recovered from a flat image with a white background. This will even be perfect for scanning in drawings from my sketchbook and colouring them digitally! You’re a star 🌟💜
Thankyou so much for this bud! You've saved me a hell of a lot of time and effort - straight to the point too! Cheers 😁
You’re an actual lifesaver, thank you so much!

You sir are a life saver! Thank you!
Thanks a lot!!!
You are awesome! Such a neat trick! It’s going to come in really handy in my next episode artwork!
I’ve been looking for this exact thing for a while now, didn’t know if it was actually something you could do in Procreate. Thanks so much!

MUCH THANKS! Helped a bunch!
I always come back to this video. Thank you man
@colorwithkurt *YOU ARE A GENIUS!!!* I have been trying to figure this out since I started using Procreate!! I am literally awestruck right now that you were able to figure this out! This is going to take my creative processes to the next level; thank you soooo much! NEW SUBSCRIBER! 🙌🫶🎉
I love you.... THANK YOU!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Saved my graphic design project !!
OMG i would never find out by my self!! I almost threw that sh** away! Thank you so much!!!
I made this video but because I saw the question asked on the Procreate forums and their own developers told them it couldn't be done.
THANK YOU!!!!
SPEECHLESS. I didn't actually know I wanted to do this until now. Then I realized I did want to do this a long time ago and just forgot about it because I thought it was not possible. Thanks Kurt!
Wow, what an incredibly useful thing to know. Thank you so much! Subscribed.
Thank you so much!!
simply put, THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU
OMG thank you so much!! You are a LEGEND!!!
Life-changing information. Thank-you so much!!
You are a miracle!!!
Brilliant!
SO fucking clever. absolutely genius. tysm OTL
Thank you for making such an easy to follow video! I saw one tutorial on it and I was just absolutely lost, and they were trying to take much longer to explain the same thing.
This was PERFECT.
Glad I could help!
Dude ….just dude 😭😭😭😭 this made me so happy ❤
OH MY GOD THANK YOU. THANK YOU!!! I'm currently not in a position to renew my CSP license and am only able to work with procreate (budgeted down to the penny, quite literally lmao) and while I use procreate for my linework, I was using CSP for colors, and the inability to do this is one of the big reasons why I ultimately was using CSP for rendering. Knowing how to do this will speed up my workflow immensely, and allow me to finish my pages with the sort of speed that will allow me to finish issues on a time table that will make publishing on a consistent schedule a lot easier. I know this is a little thing, but it makes a giant impact in my art process.
Thanks! Glad to hear it helped.
Y RU SO SMRT! THX KRT!
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you so much
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
thank you so so so much. me too, i can not express how grateful i am that you've shared this information. thank you.
Exactly what I was looking for thank you!!
Brilliant… thank you.
OMG YOU'RE A GENIUS !!!
Perfect thank you
WOW I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT FOR YEARS!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCU
Dude. I accidently merged my ink layer with my background and closed the app. I was going to completely re ink the line work. You just saved me like 9 hours of work.
Thanks.
u made that soooooo easy, ty!!!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH
Thank you so much! Really saved my job. I appreciate this so much!
Thank you!
This is such a Pro Tip. Thank you so much, I needed this
Thank you thank you thank you!! Finally someone who isn’t telling me to just use the select tool! 🎉
This worked like a charm. THANK YOU so much for sharing this with us.
This trick saved me big timee!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOURE A GOD
Thank you Thank you Thank you a million times 🙂
You just saved me so much work omg
I COULD CRY. This was so easy and helpful! Thanks so much!
You're so welcome!
That's pure genius! :D Thank you!
Thanks Kurt! Procreate needs to add the “convert brightness to opacity” feature, like Clip Studio Paint.
Absolutely insane! Thank you!!!
F*****g fantastic!
This just saved my life thank you sm
you are a lifesaver thank you so much
How do you get past the layer having a lower opacity? When I colour underneath the new black work I can see the colours?
Create a selection based on the inks on the transparent layer by holding two fingers on the layer. Then fill black on a layer on a top and merge that. I think that works. :)
thank you so so so so much i cannot express how amazing it was to find this
That is genuinely helpful! Thanke ^.-.^
Does it work if my background is blue instead of white?
You just saved my life
Short and to the point! Thank you!!
Just got procreate also I can draw on the go on my iPad , after using clip studio for so many years I was shocked to discover procreate didn’t allow such a basic feature as this one. Thank you so much!!!
