Welcome to Day 5 of 20 Days of Procreate Play.  Today you’re making a bold little piece of abstract wall art while learning the Procreate basics that make everything faster.

You’ll practice setting up a custom canvas (10x10 in, 300 DPI), using brush search to find tools quickly, dialing in color with the Classic color picker, and experimenting with pressure + tilt to get different textures. Then we’ll level up with the shortcuts every beginner needs: undo/redo, pinch/zoom, rotate, and move around the canvas with confidence.

In today’s challenge, you’ll learn:

-Create a custom canvas (10” x 10”, 300 DPI)
-Find brushes fast using the Brush Library search bar
-Adjust brush size + opacity with the sliders
-Use pressure to change brush behavior
-Undo/redo quickly (including rapid undo/redo)
-Zoom, rotate, and pan your canvas with two fingers
-Prep your art to share/export (project-ready!)

🖼️ Your mission: make one finished abstract piece you’d actually hang up.
