Hello! Do these courses offer certificates of participation?
Gina Tomes –
Great question Denisa – this isn’t something that is provided, however, I have provided your feedback to our Senior Team and hopefully this is something we can include in the future 🙂

Is it possible to know which of Lisa Glanz’s brushes are included so I won’t make duplicate purchases?
Fran Adams –
Good question!
The two brushes by Lisa that are included are;
Nitty Gritty – Cosmos
Smudgy Goodness
cherimechua –
Thank you very much! =)
Lisa D. –
I’m wondering whether this course is worth purchasing if I don’t have Procreate. I’m hoping to purchase an iPad sometime in the next year but have to save up for it first. Are the skills and information transferable to hand drawing or are they really just applicable to digital drawing? I realize that Lisa G.’s portion is all Procreate based but it seems like the information in the other three modules might be transferable. That $39 equates to over $50 with the exchange rate, so I need to ensure that I can get some value from it if I don’t have Procreate. I’d also like to know how long it is on sale for. I’d appreciate it if you can help me out.
Gina Tomes –
Great question Lisa! Only the course from Lisa Glanz is dependant upon having Procreate. The good news is for the others the techniques are transferable to hand drawing. The courses within the Procreate Illustration School are also available separately if you would prefer 🙂 Whilst I don’t have an update as to when the course will be going up to full price, I really hope that you find lots of value at it’s current discounted price 🙂
Penelope –
Hi, is this course good for someone with no drawing experience and starting as a beginner?
Gina Tomes –
Great question Penelope! You can certainly work through the lessons as a beginner with no experience 🙂
