Art with Flo is all about having fun making digital art! It doesn't matter if you just got started making digital art or if you already have a bit more experience. I make Procreate video tutorials that are easy to follow and I will guide you through all the steps. You will be learning while doing! I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun together.
Find art inspiration everywhere around you and get motivated to draw! Anyone can learn how to draw, as long as you stay focused, be patient and practice a lot. Oh.. and watch the Art with Flo tutorial videos of course!

[@naev7281]

The fact I finally got my iPad to start drawing and I needed a tutorial!

[@davidr7830]

I only downloaded Procreate this afternoon. Your introductory guide is excellent. Everything about it was helpful - the features you chose to demonstrate, the way you did, your pacing - all superb. This is one of the best introductions to anything I have seen. Thank you very much!

[@ArtwithFlo]

Thank you so much, that’s wonderful to hear 😊

[@jessicasagastume22]

I agree! I just did this now! Thank you sooooo much!

[@cheryl5994]

FLO, IS MY NO. 1 TUTOR, SHE'S JUST AWESOME AT WHAT SHE DOES & ALL THE VIDEOS SHE CREATES, NOT FORGETTING TO MENTION HER AWESOME TREASURE CHEST. I'D RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE TO SUB TO FLO & HER CHANNEL ASWELL AS REGISTERING FOR HER WEEKLY NEWSLETTER. SHE IS SO GENEROUS WITH ALL HER GOODIES & AS A NEWBIE I REALLY DO APPRECIATE THAT. FLO DESERVES AN AWARD FOR ALL SHE DOES & I'M IN NO DOUBT THAT PEOPLE HAVE DOWNLOADED PROCREATE BECAUSE OF FLO & HER CONTENT.

[@nazliadam8215]

Very well structured videos. Thank you so much!

[@bunnichiu]

This was so helpful and you kept everything really straight forward and interesting! I can finally take the first step to using my Procreate app

[@Holly-days]

This video is soooooo helpful! I had been feeling very overwhelmed, feeling like I had to know everything at once. This introduction explains all the little actions you had us do in your tutorials that I didn’t understand the reason for. I needed this on Day 1, and somehow missed it until just now. Thank you, Flo! You’re an awesome instructor. ❤

[@Polarveis]

I used to have procreate pocket which didn't have all of the features as on iPad and I got an iPad and apple Pencil today! This helped with a few things i needed help with! :)

[@lauriemyers3]

Your channel is seriously my go-to source for learning how to create on Procreate! Thank you so much! You are beyond talented

I AGREE, NOBODY DOES IT QUITE LIKE FLO. ✌️🙂

[@marcylundy1613]

Thank you so much. I have had Procreate for over a year and I’ve hardly used it. Now I can’t wait to see what I can do with it.

[@cabugs]

Thank you for this video. I had just gotten my first iPad and I was looking around for apps that I’d like to use for drawings and illustration when I came across this video. Very concise yet detailed! Kudos. I must say, I might just get Procreate because of the features you’ve shown here!

[@cheryl5994]

I HOPE YOU DID DOWNLOAD PROCREATE, IT'S A SMALL (ONE-OFF) PRICE TO PAY FOR SUCH AN AWESOME APP, I PAID £8.99 IN THE UK, IT'S WORTH EVERY PENNY.

[@cabugs]

[@joaniecastelli4428]

This was great thank you.

[@qiranxu8388]

Dear Flo, thank you so much for your introduction! They are very helpful I have to say! I have an extra question about operating: I used the colour fill for background on the same layer of my character I’m drawing, but I would like to separate the two and using the background colour in its own layer; however, it’s already many steps before so I cannot go backwards with arrows. Is there a smart way to make the background colour transparent again so I can separate my characters from the background colour I added to the same layer? I hope my question is clear enough;)

[@leofab2802]

Thank you sooo much for the brushes pack! I just wanted to trace something to start with but couldn’t even find a basic black line with the base brushes..

Ty so muck flo this was my first Darwin I came out so well thank you sooooo much 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

I have had Procreate on my ipad for a while now, felt intimidated to start using it. Your videos have helped me through that angst and I am actually excited to start learning! Your video is well organized, and has a chill pace that I have not found in other videos. They jump around too much! Yours is very digestible and full of good info. Can you suggest which video I should go to next? Thanks!

[@cheryl5994]

I'VE BEEN EXACTLY THE SAME KELLY, I SAT LOOKING AT IT FOR A GOOD WHILE BEFORE I HAD THE COURAGE TO JUMP IN & THANKS TO FLO I'M CONTINUALLY LEARNING. SHE IS A STAR IMO.
