Digital Painting COMP 9746
Online
Our Digital Painting course helps further your passion for drawing and painting by teaching you how to use the pressure-sensitive technology of a digital drawing tablet. Learn how to apply the pen to screen just as you would a brush to canvas. Explore custom brushes, speed painting, and matte painting as you learn how to render eyes, mouths, noses, skin, and hair in order to create a lifelike human portrait.

Additional Information

You must be able to run the full desktop version of Photoshop and have a tablet. You can use either a graphic tablet (touchpad and stylus) or a screen tablet (graphic tablet with a built-in monitor) that connects to computers. Recommended graphic tablets are the Wacom Intuos and Wacom Intuos Pro (any size). (Wacom is the industry standard, but other brands are acceptable.) Recommended screen tablets include Wacom Cintiq, Huion Kamvas Pro, and XP-Pen Artist. iPads cannot currently be used on their own for this course, but iPad users can use Sidecar or Astropad to convert the iPad into a screen tablet that can be used with your computer to run desktop software.
