FAQ

Can I take this with zero experience and no drawing background?

Our philosophy is to let you enjoy drawing and have fun first, then improve gradually—so there's no need to worry about having no foundation.

What software and equipment do I need?

This is a Photoshop desktop digital painting course, so you'll need a computer (Windows / Mac) plus Adobe Photoshop (subscription-based; the Adobe Photography Plan includes Photoshop), and we recommend a drawing tablet (such as a Wacom or any digital tablet). The course includes an exclusive brush set and course files (.abr)—install and go.

Is there a viewing time limit?

Yes—after purchasing, join the student community to ask questions and share your assignments. The instructor and fellow students will give you feedback and help you complete your first sticker set.

How is this different from the Procreate version and the animated sticker course?

This is the Photoshop (desktop) "static sticker" course; there are also a Procreate (tablet) version and an animated sticker course. Choose based on your equipment and the type of stickers you want to make—the concepts largely carry over.
