Hi everyone!
Just wanted to make a really simple tutorial for beginners to get started with portrait painting on Procreate. If you do not have facetune you can always just skip that part and go straight into tracing at 4:45
DISCLAIMER - for those of you who don’t watch the entire video and kept insisting that it’s copying/cheating/ fraud etc without listening to my explanation I feel compelled to explain again. In a painting process there’s a couple of stages -
1. Getting familiar with the software is Procreate
2. Drawing
3. Grayscale
4. Color
5. Brushwork
6. Finishing
this method involves tracing and color picking which takes away the learning process of drawing, grayscale and color stages so that you can focus on learning the software, brushwork and finishing. It shouldn’t be used as a crutch forever but a good way to get started and learn from this process. If you are interested in learning the hard way you can watch my other tutorials not labeled as beginner. Leaving negative comments would discourage other artists wanting to start from zero. I will not be replying any negative comments. Don’t wanna keep repeating and explaining myself.
Enjoy the tutorial today!
Please credit me if you use my brushes or color palettes!
Beginners, pls watch the Procreate basic series if you're new to procreate.

I think a lot of you are missing the point.
This is not a "Learn how to draw" tutorial.
This is a "Learn how to use Procreate" tutorial.
Tracing is just to make the overall project simpler.
The main point is to get more familiar with procreate features such as various palettes and brushes.
Also doing it this way lets you get more comfortable with drawing on a tablet which is very different.
I'm a designer - but I don't draw at all.
This tutorial is perfect for helping me get more comfortable with procreate and eventually using it as an app to sketch and eventually learn to draw.
Henry yea. My point exactly.
It is good for procreate learning, but it is definetly not a portait tutorial as mention in title. Just an other clickbait. I was hoping to understand more about portraits. But this is just someone telling us how they study portait instead of teaching us how to actually make one. This kind of video is my daily drawing study. Good things about color, values and else.
It’s not how to use Procreate it’s how to do a Procreate portrait
@@diversemediaproducti I was talking to the person who wrote the original comment but go off
I know
Everyone : Tracing isn’t cheating! We all did it!
Me : *cant find any comments saying tracing is cheating*
Olive Oil Oh, alright.
Lol thats what im looking for
Yep. There's no faster way to get a bunch of likes than to phrase a popular opinion as an argument against a enemy that doesn't exist.
Olive Oil Yeah, the art community is super toxic. People with this sort of black and white view of tracing can be found all over Twitter, DeviantArt, Tumblr, etc. It’s funny, because I most commonly find that these people have never received any sort of formal training or drawn professionally. Art theft is certainly an issue when art is actually being stolen and profited off of, but nowadays I’m finding more often than not, people are being vilified for doing something that is essentially studying.
As long as you credit the original picture when you post the traced one, you're all good!
I personally don't think tracing is "cheating" because from my point of view, it's like when they teach you the alphabet in school. First you trace the letters and then slowly you learn to do it yourself. Think of it that way
** EXCEPT WHEN YOU PASS IT OFF AS YOUR OWN THAT IS CHEATING **
.
'
the difference there is there are only 26 letters in the english alphabet...
there are an infinite number of faces or references or skintones or lighting...
you cant trace a face 100x then onthe 101st one you do it without the tracing...
@@erljohnbersamin2970 but its not just the face. You can break the face down into the eyes, mouth, nose, view point, and shading and once youve practiced them enough you should be good to start practicing without em. So really you are only tracing 5 key points (maybe more maybe less) unlike the 100 you claim. Sure theres all kinds of faces and shapes but you only need the essentials to go out there and try on your own (even if it looks bad). Quit discouraging people.
@@Monokm I really just think this video promotes a "quick" way to learn to draw, instead of having to learn things such as anatomy, prespective, color theory, etc, this video tells you to go and trace the photo and colorpick the colors, and that will pretty much lead you nowhere, because there's no quick way to learn art, you need to practice every day, and study like hell.
art isnt easy like this video is portraying..
I have an iPad. An Apple Pencil. And Procreate. Let’s do this UPDATE!!! it has nearly been a year since this comment was posted. i’m still doing art and have one 3 rewards for it. and was labeled. most talented teen in school for my work 😌
Norsk Snøfugl I believe in you! Wishing you good luck on your art journey
Was the same 4 months ago, struggled really hard at first, but I just kept on going, and now it's one of my fav mediums. Wish u luck!
i just got mine today LEGGO
I only have an iPhone and ibisPaint with my fingers :/
Norsk Snøfugl Sinix’s procreate tutorial and free brushes are life changing. I hated procreate before using it.
I know some artists call this an incorrect way to learn but personally for me, I’ve grown a lot from doing this instead of just reading the same rules over and over again but failing to apply those to my art work. Through this way, I can see the correct values and ways to structure the anatomy. It’s given me more results in a few months than I did studying for a year! So I was super happy to see you do this tutorial! Though it’s not for everyone as we all learn in different ways 😁
Aphrodite same goes for me hun ! I always had struggle with the correct colors n stuff or proportions but by tracing and kept analysing what i actually trace there i trained my eye alot so i dont see there any problem with that method...but some even freak out when just using reference too so for some theres always something wrong bout it xD doesnt matter what it is or how much time to put into it
@@solveigfrank Tracing is ok if you are a beginner, you slowly learn proportions and values. But this is helpful only as a beginner, after that you can pass to a real-life copy who is a lot more difficult but will teach you more. Also, this tutorial is literally copying the same colours it isn't even teaching you how to create your values etc, for example, if you want to increase the difficulties and learn more about the light you could use different colours and increase the contrast. copyng and tracing are fine if you are a beginner but doing this is on a computer make it toooooo much easy, that is why is better to trace and copy from a picture and using real colors, that will teach you more than doing this.
i dont think you will learn anything if you just copy it this way.
Shintaro Majima then why u here bro. go scribble on a piece of paper
Q B I used the cursive example earlier with my sister, so funny to see you say the same thing! Awesome to see other people who learned the same way 💛
Thinking I was “cheating” by tracing has kept me from drawing and even learning for many years. I felt guilty and like I was betraying an entire community, but I think people should understand that part of learning is tracing and color sapling like this. It teaches you aspects of drawing in an easier way.
This helped be patient with myself enough to begin to learn. Thank you so much for this tutorial!
You shouldn't feel guilty, I don't understand why people are getting so mad about it. It's a great way to learn and as a beginner I'm also doing it. Even if you have used 'tracing', that doesn't mean that is super easy to draw something, it still takes time and effort and you need to have some kind of skills to make it look good.
I totally understand. I had NO art training or experience 15 yrs ago. I found that recreating a picture I loved, often tracing for certain shapes, helped me learn so much. Now I can do things on my own, but for a few months, I learned by recreating other art. And as someone above said,depending on the sketch, it is NOT easy to truly recreate an amazing drawing.
Exactly. And some are visual learners, others are more kinesthetic learners. I’m the ladder. I used to be a better artist then I am now (since I haven’t done art in years), and after tracing the same thing I started to learn how to draw it by hand.
True
Almost every artist has traced or currently traces quite a bit. Even the big names used lightboxes as well as point measuring.
Lets be honest every artist out here has traced an image as a beginner. I traced what I first started because I wanted to learn how to draw something.
I've actually never traced anything in my whole entire life, not saying there is anything wrong with tracing, I've just never done it.
@@lupitatello951 Same, I started drawing when I was 4, I think?
Lmao true, but thing always looked worse for me whenever I traced versus when I just looked at whatever picture as a reference 😩
i used to trace tom and jerry from pausing the dvd player, i think that’s how i first got into art. tracing can really help as long as you don’t claim that you drew it or post it on your socials
I traced princesses from a fairytale children book when i was 10 years old. I eventually learned to draw by just looking though.
“Really really easy”
Me : grabs ipad, apple pencil and opens procreate
5 hours later
Mum : Nice dog!
too funny
Plot twist she did a portrait of her dog
What I can draw is just stickman
Omg lol 😂
ughh same with me hahahahaah
In the middle of my first attempt now, and must say watching essentially a cloud of flesh tones slowly merge together into recognizable features is sooooooooooo satisfying.
I love this! This is how I've started off in digital painting because although it may be considered "cheating" to some, it helps me see that it's possible for me to create art & helps motivate me. Painting this way is just a starting point 😊
kyra637 yea that’s how I learnt back in the days as well.
Me too! I tried without and just following along all kind of tutorials but i only ended up with depression lol...i became much better after tracing some images ( i always tend to change some details on thos paintings too like hair) but it helped me train my eyes so much to actually see the hues and how that effect the entire piece
kyra637 i started off like this too, now I use the grid method to draw realistically if I want it exact, i just freehand from refs if it doesn’t need to be exact tho
but you are not "creating art" at all by tracing, you create nothing. but if it gives your smooth brain the illusion of accomplishing something then well, enjoy your fake art..
IAMSOUND99 but you also learn from it, for example I could NEVER find a color on the color-wheel for skin that looked natural, but once I tried copying some colors from portraits or other paintings I began to recognize how skin colors look and what colors to blend together. I also started to recognize proper proportions by tracing various faces and bodies and beginning to notice the patterns. I also learned where the shadows would be depending on where the light is. For example, in nearly every portrait I traced, their was a shadow on the neck. Before the tracing, I’d never realized that chins or lips would create shadows or that eyelashes are curled downwards and then upwards rather than extrude straight from the eyelid. There are a lot of other patterns I’ve learned, such as how the hair should fall depending on the position of the face and so on.
I think this is a really important video for many beginner artists and even those wanting to venture into semi-realism art. So many people say that using references and stuff is cheating but it really isn’t, you SHOULD be using references every chance you get when you’re studying art, it’s the best way to learn the correct proportions, shading, and shapes of body parts and features. You could “draw off your imagination” but 9/10 that really doesn’t get you anywhere because you don’t have the basics down to venture off from. Build your basics first through references, tracing, because over time once you have that down you can use your imagination to create visually pleasing art and it just becomes easier to draw anything once you’ve studied light sources, shading, and basic body features! 💞💞 it’s the key to progressing in your art, especially if you feel like you haven’t improved by much over the years or you want to polish your technique.
I really like how she says 'WE' all the time and her voice is very calming and her English is so cute
This video literally showed that we need talent for tracing and copying too
Strike RiderX
I think you mean accent, not English
@@earth2ravenn it's not wrong tho
@@milkandcookies4872 But it is! Her English is perfect. Her viice is calming, and her accent is cute
I just bought an iPad, Apple Pencil and Procreate two days ago. I've always wanted to try doing realistic paintings but I don't know where to start- and to me this is a good start
Update?
If starving artists had a nickel for every time someone said "I cant even draw a stick figure" they wouldnt be starving artists LMAO
RoseyRoses Lmao ikr they would be millionaires by now
bruh I’m not even an artist and I’d have enough to drop out of school and move out
THIS
No, if they had a PENNY for every time someone said that they would be rich
stahp this gives me PTSD of all the people telling me they cant draw a stick figure, their uncle is an artist, do you do this for living and did you go to art school to learn this.
This is a tutorial for beginners who need to figure out procreate before they can start doing their own artwork. I think this is a great way to get comfortable with the app. Even for me as an art student, I had some trouble with the app in the beginning, not knowing how to use the brushes the best way possible. But if you use this technique in the beginning it helps you figure out how to use the brushes and figuring out your preferences. Obviously after a while you need to graduate into making your own art, using a reference picture as just a reference picture and slowly learning to use your eyes and even the grid feature instead of tracing. And honestly, especially if it’s from a reference picture, sometimes tracing the skeleton just saves time to get to the same starting point faster. From there you can change the colors, values, etc... I personally like changing the color palette of reference pictures but I’ll start with a trace. Sometimes I’ll trace my own art if I want to change something or make a variation. Although when drawing on paper, it’s better to learn how to draw from your eyes, with digital art I feel like it’s very different as you can’t use the same techniques between the two platforms.
This is exactly how I learned years ago. Tracing and color picking is a good learning tool for beginners, IMO, as long as you don’t keep using it as a crutch forever. People seem to forget that even the great painters of the past used “cheat” tools like grids and such. Great tutorial. :)
Not even remotely close to the same thing
trahapace150 Well, you know what they say about opinions.
trahapace150 Also, have you heard of camera obscura and camera lucida?
Question: if I trace a pic and use the traced version of the pic as a reference to draw it again in a new piece of paper, is it cheating?
@@logang101 nope, but I'd reckon it would be a lot harder that way. Since you're for one, doing more work, and two, tracing and drafting use different wrist and arm motions, and probably very different parts of the brain.
As long as people aren't posting it on their social media's, this sort of thing can be helpful. I won't name drop, but there are fairly famous artists that post these sort of paint overs and I won't lie-it's pretty frustrating to notice the acclaim they recieve from people that don't know any better.
Brandon Robbins oh I didn’t know this is a thing
@@HazeLong I think you even went extra steps in this video to make it more so a an individual piece with healthy potential errors. Where as what I have noticed is that the flaws the others I'm mentioning are intentional to keep us off the trail. I'm not calling you out though, I have actually built skin tone pallets from this process myself 😋
Is it a bad thing to post portraits made in this way? If I were to make a portrait like this, should I not post it to my social media? Not trying to be rude, just genuinely curious.
@@alexjolyhallas6747 I don't think you're coming across as rude, at all. I think when it comes to posting art, there is a sort of unspoken rule about showing off traced-art. It was the same just being a kid in school, we wanted to know if a good drawing was traced or not
@@brandonrobbins2755 ah, yes, I understand what you mean. Would it be different if it was made clear that it was traced? I'm not planning on doing so, but just so I know, Haha.
I used to do traditional art. Was never really good at it or anything, I’m a total beginner. The last time I held a pencil was like 6 years. I stopped drawing because things got busy with uni. Graduated 2 years ago, I’m working now. I always had a passion for drawing and I never really lost it. I just didn’t have time to do it. Been working from home for a few months now bc of the pandemic and I’ve always thought, maybe I should get back to drawing since I’m home all day. I decided to get an iPad and try drawing again. This time I want to try digital art. This is a very helpful guide and it certainly made want to draw even more. Thank you.
I always want to try drawing things like this, it’s always my dream ever since i was a kid but i always thought it would be really hard and complicated to do so i never try it 😂
I’ve bought the ipad, also the apple pencil, and install the app as well early this year in January
I mainly use the ipad for writing down notes in school, watching netflix or just playing games.
recently I’ve seen a lot of talented people, doing this kind of drawing all over my instagram, so I thought wanna try it for myself too.
l’ve seen a lot of videos in TH-cam but they just not what I needed they just told me how to use Procreate like the basic stuff, how to duplicate, change the brush settings, upload your works,etc
Now I’ve found your channel, I will do my best. thank you so much for the video 💜
Maria Theresia Vianney Linaldo I’m starting off with drawing on my tablet once I’m able to get my Apple Pencil, I’ve done the classic pencil and paper drawing but I’m not too comfortable with it. Do you think that’ll effect how I draw entirely?...
Sorry I’m young and dumb ^^”
Tracing is never cheating - it’s just a stepping stone in the process of learning to do portraits in a more “traditional” way! You can even find sketches or construction lines from other people as the next step to trace! It really helps to develop your process
Negative comments about her, doing it a certain way differs from how “experienced” artists do it, should be kept to a minimum.
This is art. Art is supposed to be different. How one person does it and how another, should vary. There shouldn’t be so many “rules” or “right way” to create art. It kinda beats the whole purpose of “being creative” if we’re all supposed to follow the same shit.
Everyone learns/does things differently.
Just appreciate that she took the time to even record this and provide a lot of people with a free brush pack.
So true
i remember watching this video in 2020 when i first started digital art and couldn’t draw without tracing so i did this method every single day till i felt confident enough to just color drop from the image without tracing ♥️ now i can completely draw a realistic portrait from scratch 😁
I love this tutorial. Very thankful for sharing your knowledge. Not diminishing the talent of an artist simply because you used the tracing technique. Thank you so much!
Why am I watching this I can't even afford an iPad
lost my way bruh I got mine for free at sprint go get one lmao
@@finessethegod2409 how
Finesse Thegod HOW I NEED IT RN
Fucking poor:(
Finesse Thegod how did you get a free one??
For anyone feeling guilty it's called ”line art” let that be known and no can shame you okay lol also Walt Disney studios did this with their animations it's called ”rotoscoping” for tracing live films. It's normal it's just kept hidden because of people so judgemental. You traced the alphabet and cursive writing in school....so what the problem is lol. Live your life
Of course no one should to shame another for tracing, but it's important for beginners to know that this exercise just practice the brushstroke (just like the girl say in 13:10). No drawing, no anatomy, no color or values are developed here. So comparing with tracing the alphabet it's a mistake for me: you just can learn the letters tracing them, but you can learn brushstroke with a different, more enriching exercise.
I do pretty alright with painting and drawing faces but I always have difficulty with the hair ☹️
sameeee
Same for me
Draw bald people that’s what I do.
Sharky IAJSJSNSSIJSDJXJD
literally same-
Thanks so much for this tutorial! The thought of painting anything digitally (or irl, for that matter) is extremely intimidating since I’ve got no experience, but! Watching this made me feel like it’s not as hard as I thought. I’m so excited to start trying and practicing 😄
Tracing isn't cheating...
Anyone can trace a pic but not everyone can shade and blend the colors properly to get a perfect results. It requires skills.
well said. ^^
@@s_eria Tell that to Michelangelo
@@s_eria You talked big about art knowledge but dont even know who michelangelo is????
@@s_eria I’m also not from America, but even I know who michelangelo is.. he was a famous italian renaissance artist 💀 everyone knows him..
@@s_eria it’s only stealing if you claimed the art as yours, not for practice purpose. You clearly didn’t pay attention to the video and came whining on the comments instead
im a beginner in digital painting AND in procreate so this is really helpful! i love your brushpacks too
ivazie hey! Same! Armmyyy! You seem so nice I’d wanna be your friend🥺
When I went to university to study graphic design we had illustration classes, and we would trace over images to learn different techniques of colouring ✨😌 amazing vid! Ty!
This was very helpful to me as I am still yet to familiarize myself with the procreate painting tools and the app itself. Thank you!
reading the comments actually reassured me for once LOL I'm thankful for the hundreds of artists being honest about their origins.
I’ve been feeling so down about not being able to use the app/progress in my drawing and this helped me immensely! Thank you SO much 💖🥺
As a beginner artist I really appreciate this video because I am self taught (on paper) and I’m not very good at portraits (on anything) so this will help me get a better understand of the anatomy of the face. I am wanting to move to digital so this will help lots.
Wow, I didn’t even realize something like this was possible! You have really expanded the possibilities of this amazing app!
What always helps me with the anatomy is drawing this “skeleton” (You know what I mean...😅) above the reference picture and then trying to draw the body around it without the reference picture directly underneath it.
Sophie Charlotte that a good method!
I do something really similar
I'm a beginner in procreate and your tutorials are soooo helpful! Thank you!!
i am SO happy and relieved to see that i am NOT the only one sketching on a picture... I was feeling so bad about this method but not anymore, thank you ♥
I am 13 and still a beginner. I don’t think tracing is necessarily bad. If you are training yourself, tracing is like training wheels. You have to understand what you are attempting to draw. Though, I don’t think you should share traces art as your own original piece. I’ve had friends who claim art as their won when it is clearly traced. If i ever trace I make sure I give credit. I mostly learned drawing from eye. I’m still learning. My strength is drawing portraits, and it does take a lot of practice and patience. I used to trace my reference images to understand proportions. Sooo yeah. Tracing isn’t bad if you are using it to learn or for personal use
I cannot believe that your brushes are almost all free! This is immensely generous of you, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
this is my first time doing this and I'm pretty surprised: I never knew I could paint like this, I feel like I've saved years of learning with this technique 💗 thank you so much
Lovely tutorial! In response to the comment section, I have to say I hate all the focus on tracing and whether its considered art or not. Even the people who defend it and say 'its okay for beginners!' irk me. IMO, who cares if somebody traces a photograph? Not everyone is interested in perfecting their anatomical/illustrative skills and just want to get right into painting, shading etc. And who cares if they post it on their social media? All this focus on what is original and safe to post and what isnt is very toxic and discouraging to people who just want to make art without following all these unspoken rules.
If you want to color and shade a picture, get a coloring book. If you trace, you aren’t “creating” art. You literally didn’t create anything, you copied it. Tracing for practice is an easy learning technique. But it’s not art.
censored coloring books are extremely limited in that I don’t get to control the line width or even paint realistically like I do drawing off of photographs. When I make art I like to render realistic digital paintings from photographs - you can’t tell me that by tracing the outline of someone’s face and then going through hours of painting it myself that I’m not creating art and just copying. It takes skill and technique to color and shade - just as this person did here. You can say it’s not completely original (of course) but again, as long as no ones entering their art in for competitions or trying to gain a following while lying about it then why should it matter? Sometimes art is just a hobby for people and nothing more.
censored actually I really like your coloring book analogy. We accept coloring book art as “hobby” art and not really professional art. Yet, there are some people who create masterpieces from coloring books and we consider them to be true artist - even if this is the only thing they do. I think this could be a similar case. We can appreciate someone’s ability to shade and color realistically while acknowledging that they can’t actually draw for shit. It doesn’t have to be completely black and white. But this is just my opinion and I know very well 99% of people do not agree and I can see why. Anyway sorry for the long replies!
I keep doing it but it turns out terrible and it’s making me frustrated
I was looking to draw a good portrait on a piece of paper yesterday. And here I am, with an iPad. Just try on getting your dream item, you’ll get it someday!
🥺🥺❤️
her : “really really easy portrait”
me : WTH is easy about that???
kisha potato it’s easy because usually it’s wayyyyyy harder than just doing that
Yes it's easy cuz the other ways to draw are more difficult :)
unknown im sorry yall im just not that skilled😞
@@kishichi6060 don't be sorry it's ok im not skilled Too 🌺
if tracing over a damn photo is hard to you then sorry but you should give up
For me, this is like the best basic introduction tutorial into digital drawing. I really have no experience at all using any digital drawing softwares nor digital drawing devices, but could actually understand and pick up few skills from this video. Good content and video!
This video is soo detailed and precise! I’m sure people who are new to procreate can learn alot from this video
this whole video and comment section gave me a whole bunch of validation as a new artist
I love your tutorials so much because you're so thorough and for me who is kinda slow it's really easy to follow along! Thank you
As someone who does mostly canvas and traditional art this is really helpful for entering the digital art world. Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video!
肌と目の瑞々しさがほんと凄い……好き……
i’ve never done this before but i’ve started painting more and you’re right about the tones. i think i’m going to try this! facial tones can be rly hard to mimic.
Wynsday how did it turn out?
this is a really great tutorial! You can also open and multi task photos on you iPad to see the reference photo
I don't trace because I love drawing freehand, even if my proportions are slightly different. But I'll definitely use this painting technique. I sketched the portrait in coloured pencil today, took a photo and uploaded it to my iPad canvas. I'll add the original photo to pick the colours and learn to paint using your technique. Super helpful for learning to block tones. Thanks so much for this tutorial❤❤🩷
Beautiful art really...
I just don't see where the easy part is
Honestly this is one of the best tutorials on painting I have ever watched you have a gift.. Thank you so Much… considering the brush pack. The color pocking was not even aware this exist🤯🤩you litterly cut my painting time in half .. wow thank you
me seeing this
also me: directly go in her store to get all her brushes for FREE thas soo great TYSM
peachy FR
AND HER COLOR PALETTES AJFBJASJJFJS
Although I personally don’t use this method because drawing from scratch feels best to me, I do believe it’s not at all cheating. The point of art is to express yourself and THERE ARE NO RULES!
I like your editing and your voice is soothing :) Thank you for the video
Well there is ONE rule lol which is not to claim it as your own. I think tracing should be used exclusively for training purposes and learning. But never to show around as if you did it yourself
Thank you for this! I’ve been really confused but using procreate is getting easier
I just wanna point out that not everyone learns the same way. So just because you feel like this beginners technique won’t teach people anything, (you may have learned anatomy and proportions, as well as color theory from textbooks) then that’s your learning style. Personally I learn more by doing VS reading and then doing studies. I get brain fog a lot, so this technique has been very helpful for me to practice (literally, all the colors were lighter and had a more grey tone than I thought which shocked me) and I’m slowly starting to realize that colors in an image may not reflect exactly the same. Many many colors and tones and variations go into creating a skin tone. I am growing, I just started getting into digital art (i would always draw things out of my head, however I SUCK at proportions and colors for skin, and I’m working on it slowly.) along with this technique, I still use my sketch book and I take classes on skillshare, and I have a big ol book on the human figure. It just depends on the person, please be kind to one another. We’re all apart of the art community ❤️
Tell me if I’m wrong, but the only way tracing is wrong, is when you trace other’s art, not a picture of someone/something.
thank you for this! i always get discouraged by "bad" drawings and give up before i have the time to learn something. this seems like something that i can do whenever i'm bored while still learning about drawing, placing colours, sketching, etc.
I used this tutorial, and I’ve improved sm! Ty💖
This is the only tutorial I could find that didnt show you how to draw faces using shapes and crap, this is exactly what i needed! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I look forward to playing around with your custom brushes. I hope I can purchase more soon!
I’m so happy my dad just bought procreate for me and I’m sooo excited
I think I love u! You’re the best, I’ve learned how to use Procreate, thanks for ur beautiful tutorials ❤️
My good friend is an amazing commission artist of fantasy art, and she started out tracing comic books as a kid. People can get real stuffy about different methods of learning, especially when it comes to art, but there's really no objectively wrong way to learn, so long as it gets you where you're trying to go.

Me : that is already an art
jisung pie
I'm just a beginner with procreate so I still trying to get the hang of it but I agree that tracing is not cheating and that it's a way of getting the feel of things for me personally until you can start doing your own portraits from scratch, I have been doing my sketches mostly on paper so I thought I'd give digital art a try and this video has helped me out a lot! Loved the video absolutely stunning 😍❤️
Very good tutorial. As a beginner it helps me a lot. Thanks! 👍🏻
Thank you so much for this. People are so annoying. IT IS NOT CHEATING!!!! IT IS LEARNING.Thank you for still going ahead to ignoring the haters! x
Y’all over here with iPad pros while I’m over here with a normal iPad. No pencil or nothing, just my finger lol
Dizee same😂😂
🥳
I lost my pencil and I’m so devastated. I’ve just been using my finger but I’m planning on buying another one
Diesel patches girlfriend same hereeee
This is one of the most helpful tutorials for beginners I have ever seen for any program in my whole life. It's something that took me many many years to learn on my own. Start by "cheating" or "copying". It really helps you grasp so many things like what you say for example @10:36.
Thanks for making this, and showing the whole thing, with such excellent commentary and explanation! Insanely well done.
I think the cheating is the Instagram artists who do this and claim that they didn’t and was all done from sketch to color and details
Vanessa yes!!! some do it off screen and just show the blending and shit so you don’t know they actually traced% hey if it turns out pretty, it turns out pretty. I think artists think they’re cheating Bc were all so hard on ourselves to be authentic
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been watching this video for the N number of times ( I could no longer count how many times I’ve watched it - doing pause and repeat, pause and repeat). This really gave me the courage to paint and do it the same way as in this tutorial for mine and my families’ portrait. I have no confidence whatsoever because I absolutely have zero artistic nature, but this video gave me courage and confidence to begin a project to paint my love ones’ portraits. So thank you so so much😊😊😊. And more power to your channel and in all the things that you do. 🌈
I have to say this loud for the people in the back:
TRACING
IS NOT
“CHEATING”.
Tracing does not invalidate the art.
Great artists have been tracing for hundreds of years.
Art projectors, light boxes, pantographs and many. other machines through the years have been widely used to help artists”trace”. Computers and tablets and software are tools. Use them however you want.
Procreate is specifically set up with reference layers so you can trace.
You don’t have to trace, you can if you want, it’s all good.
I thing it's a great way to learn procreate. Tracing over a picture is correct to learn in my opinion. But the project of another artist, it's not correct if you are gonna post it on your social media right after it of course :). But for beginners (and I'm still a beginner in my opinion bc we can't do everything perfect!) I still advise to trace. I remember in high school of art and design, my teacher would always told us to copy and copy and copy again to learn the process you are recreating and learn the mouvements that your hand need to do.
hi, this video helped me a lot, especially to improve my art skills and features for the face! thank you!! :))
I don`t get it why people get so offended and calling this cheating. Tracing's someones face for a sketch to get familiar with proportions isn`t cheating. You can totally change features after and you can totally use different color pallet to finish your painting. Cheating is when you trace someone's art and claim it to be yours (like a copycat). Some people are better at doing a painting even without a sketch, some people still learn, both are totally fine! Stop arguing about what method is better than the other, if something worked for you, i`m happy for you, but your method might not work for everyone. Everyone learns different.
Haze did an amazing tutorial for people that still learn proportions and values.
And I bet everyone that there is no artist in this world that didn`t even trace once in their lives. We all did that at least once. So stop playing the "saint" there.
Me: woah that looks quite easy!
Me: grabs ipad, pen and opens Procreate

I've drawn portraits using graphite pencil and paper on and off for 20 years, but I've always found proportions and angles extremely challenging; I guess my brain just has trouble with them. Since I've started digital painting, I've traced. Even though I end up combining multiple references, changing things, using different colors, etc., I've been so terribly insecure about "cheating" that way. I can't tell you how much it means to see a video where someone does this. I honestly thought it was me being lame and lazy. Thank you for helping me start to think maybe it's okay. :)
I love your tutorials and you're sharing your brushes for free! You're very helpful and I learned a lot of things from you! Thank you for existing and helping! 💜💛
I use tracing to learn art then I reference off of what I traced just to get muscle memory it’s a great method for new and learning artists
Every time I watch videos on digital art it's literally "magic"
Sadly I don't have an iPad, or any drawing tablets whatsoever, unfortunately, I cannot afford one. But, I really want to do digital art, I've been drawing in sketchbooks for several years now. And, as a self taught artist, I want to get out of my comfort zone, and, explore digital art.
I use ibsPaint on my phone, for digital art currently.
And, since I want to use Procreate on an iPad someday, I want to learn as much as possible. I don't really find this tutorial as a cheat at all, as a matter of fact, it's very captivating. It is a good way to learn about shading, and anatomy. But, this technique shouldn't be used all the time, learning about different techniques is important. But, in my opinion, this technique is a really good technique to start off with. I really like this video, and, this channel, you have yourself a new subscriber!
hey we can be drawign buddies!Can i see some of ur art?Im rly hoping i could find another artist i could contact cause it feels rlly sad learning on my own lmao
oh and btw do u have a pc?IF u do u can buy a huion tablet for just 30 dollars somewhere online. u cn find alot just by searching it actually. Its a good way to start on digital art bc u dont rlly need to hav an expensive tablet or ipad to draw digitally just like how you do in traditional. Im 13 and the only thing i cn afford with my lunch money is that
there are lots of cheap tablets out there. I got mine for 40$ 5 years ago and still work with it comfortably. Get one and start using Paint tool Sai or krita. It's easy
The app I’ve used in the past is Infinite Painter (it’s free and works really well, pressure-sensitivity is built into the app so you don’t need the Apple Pencil, you can use any cheap stylus or even your finger and you’ll get the same varying line qualities) and it has many of the same features and you can use it on your phone! Plus it’s free! Not sure if it’s only available for iOS though or if it’s available for Android as well
SiraGem Art thank you for letting me know! 😄
*“Really, really eAsY”*
BTW sis I love your drawing style thank you so much ❤
Omg thank you!
I came back here after 2 portraits I'm super proud of!
I'm crying 😭😭✨✨
Very helpful tutorial! Thank you so much 😭💖
You are an amazing teacher 💓 I wish I had teachers like you when I was in art school.
You inspire me to continue practicing 😊
She said that tracing is alright but please, tracing others project is not ok, it can be called out for stealing.
Edit: i was like 12 when i wrote this(14 now). Tracing is fine as long as you dont claim it as your own artwork. It could even help u out lmao very sorry for the false comment.
Peacheyz in my opinion, as long as they don’t claim the artwork as their own and they trace it for the sake of practicing, its probably acceptable, since stealing would mean that they promote it and claim it as their own art.
Everyone starts from zero. For example, I learnt to draw by tracing at first, then gradually I could manage on my own.
Aaand you’re extremely right, stealing is really bad! But in this case, I believe she said tracing is alright because we’re using it as practice. =) Just don’t go flexing it online since people will say you’re stealing. x.x
weewooo yes❤️
Only if you claim it as your own
weewooo omg yes i completely agree, i forgot i made this comment.. i was like 12 😭 yes tracing is fine as long as you dont claim it as your own artwork. Tracing can even help you out lmao
Toca Hazel thank you for reminding my of this comment ive made lmao
thank you for this! i am recently trying out digital portrait painting and watching tutorials in youtube is a big help. i was struggling where to start since i got my ipad. it was different from what i usually do in actual physical canvas. 💛
whenever i watch other peoples speed paints i usually see that most people don't zoom in when doing special details. I zoom in way too much and i thought it wasn't normal.
JRXY • YO SAME
Some speed paints don’t show the zooms, it just shows the results, so don’t sell yourself short. A lot of these you tubers zoom a lot but the program they are using doesn’t show that in the final speed paint video. Everyone zooms, especially if it’s an intricate piece.
There's a problem for me in zooming that when I zoom I don't see the whole drawing and how it actuallh looks and often these details turn out to look good zoomed and absolutely unsettling when I zoom out.
I think this is a great tutorial for how to use the brushes and blending-Thank you!
I would love to see a layers tutorial too 🥰🥰🥰 and thanks i love the video i will watch the others
I really appreciate this tutorial. I’ve been struggling with the drawing part when all I want to do is paint! Thank you!
This was so incredibly helpful! I downloaded your brushes and they are awesome oh my god. I can't wait till I graduate from school and have money to donate to you!!!
Dear Haze! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've always wanted to learn how to draw, but I failed each time. With this tutorial I can learn so many things and try to draw. I do appreciate your help. Thank you
This helped me so much I've been tracing the face shape and I'm now moving to drawing the face shape/ body by myself and I felt I couldn't do that will I learned how to properly color the faces/bodies
Omg I have been free hand drawing for no reason 😅 this should help save time on the basic face shape so that I get to the fun part 😅
