Meet Your Creator
Hi!

My name is Deborah Lee and I'm a freelance illustrator based in Oakland, California. While my career began relatively recently a few years ago, I am lucky to have been given a few graphic novel deals to publish in the next few years. Currently, I'm working on my first book, a memoir titles "IN LIMBO", which has been my full-time job this year!
 
Every day I draw and render at least 2-3 backgrounds on Procreate, which has taught me on how to save time while making meticulous and effective settings. I can't wait to share what I've learned with everyone!

This course will teach and guide you on how to effectively utilize different tools such as "digital brushes," "palettes," and "blending options" in Procreate app.
We will help you adjust app settings to optimize your drawing experience.
