Procreate LAB

Live, project-based Procreate courses
for artists and creatives.

Let’s get real for a moment.
How many online courses have you bought … only to watch a couple of lessons and never finish them?

Yep… I’ve been there too. And that’s one of the reasons I wanted to make Procreate Lab live.

Instead of learning on your own, you’ll have a real group of people creating alongside you, live sessions to keep you moving, feedback when you get stuck, and a little bit of accountability to actually finish what you started.

Learning is great.
But finishing something you’re proud of? That’s even better. 💛

    I really enjoyed this class! I have painted and ilustrated in traditional mediums for a while but I'm brend new to digital art. Its something that I have been wanting to do for a long time but always felt very intimidated about. This class definetly made me believe that my dream of desingning on procreate can be possible! lol. The class was very informative but still digestible and I feel a lot more confident using the program. I specially gained a better undertanding of the use of layers and designing assets that I can keep as png was a game changer.


    Digital Illustration: A Beginners Guide to Mastering Procreate Class

  • Fanny Rafa


    I'm a total Procreate beginner and I can't believe I mastered the basics in only 2 hours! Silvia Ospina is a great teacher. She goes straight to the point, and doesn't overwhelm you with extensive details and ramblings. The lessons are nicely structured, short and efficient. The audio and video quality is amazing. I practiced on my iPad while watching the videos, and only had to rewind a couple of times to make sure I understood the steps correctly. Highly recommend!

  • Charlene Aviles-Soto


    I had so much fun with these projects. I can definitely see myself using these techniques in the future.

    I especially loved the idea of keeping folders in your photo albums with saved images and also a folder in Canva with png uploads ready for any future projects. I also enjoyed creating a presentation of the work.

    Actionable steps make me more accountable. Great class! I know I will refer to it often.

    Although I was already using both Procreate and Canva I wish I had taken this class much earlier. It tidied my understanding of both apps.

    At the same time I enjoyed immensely the process of depicting glorious flowers and ways of using them digitally for various needs.

    I highly recommend this class for those with shaky or no knowledge of these apps but I would say some understanding of art fundamentals will help.

  • Debbie O'Connor


    I had already done some illustration classes on Procreate prior to starting this
    course, but I feel that my flower illustrations have taken a giant leap after watching this one.
    I’m finally getting the hang of adding depth and finding the details.

    The projects are fun too, and I’m looking forward to publishing some cute social media posts and sharing some lovely designs with my friends on greetings cards and gifts.

    Hi Silvia! I love the way you present everything which makes it so easy to follow the steps to make my own art. Your cheerful presentation is very inspiring and makes me feel eager to draw something. I can see how much you enjoy making art and sharing your knowledge is greatly appreciated. Thank you for sharing the information about Canva. I do not have photoshop so it was nice to see that Canva does not cut off the image like Procreate does. I love using Procreate to draw and I am slowly getting the courage to upload my art for sale on items. I’m sure anyone of any level who watches your classes will benefit greatly. Thanks again and I look forward to anything else that you upload. Sonya.

  • Audrea Peterson


    This class stood out to me because, when I was finished with all of my projects, I had a dedicated library of illustrations to use in future projects, a good working knowledge of how to use my projects and illustrations in Canva, not to mention a useful, organized workflow for future projects.

    This instructor’s knowledge of the field of design and experience in selling her own work was communicated in little tips throughout the class and contributed tools I can actually use to help me in creating and selling my own products.
    The best part about it was the project was very fun, and seeing my pattern on the mockups was exciting!

  • Mike Powell


    I absolutely love Sylvia’s classes. I had done a bunch of little illustrations and wondered what I would do with them, then I saw this course.

    I’ve taken Sylvia’s other classes and this did not disappoint! Clear and concise, fun and playful! I’ll be buying the advanced pattern kit as I see this as something I’d love to continue with!

    Thank you!

    This was a fun and instructive class. It helped we learn and implement a very sensible method of creating and saving assets to my gallery so they are always available in high quality.

    I will be backtracking and resaving many of my previously created pieces this way.

    Sylvi also clearly explain how to put together you pattern and need to tweak it sometimes several times to get it just right.
