EnglishWhat Is Art With Flo? A Procreate Learning Site Explained
Updated
Art With Flo (artwithflo.com) is a digital art education site focused on teaching Procreate, the iPad drawing app. It offers step-by-step tutorials, project-based lessons, and custom brushes, with a community supported through Patreon. It suits beginners who feel overwhelmed by Procreate as well as intermediate artists who want structured, follow-along projects.
What the site offers
The homepage centers on a few clear promises:
- Tutorials that get you into "your flo" — guided Procreate lessons, typically project-based.
- Custom brushes — downloadable brush sets to enhance Procreate projects.
- A "Procreate Treasure Chest" — framed as a collection of resources to unlock.
- A path to "become a Procreate master" — a progression from starting out to more advanced work.
The teaching style, based on patron testimonials, is thorough and action-by-action. One patron (Rita Lewis) notes Flo "identifies clearly the actions she is taking," and another (Dustin McClain) describes learning "as we do" — meaning you follow along and build skills through the project rather than through abstract theory.
Who it's for
| If you are… | Art With Flo is… |
|---|---|
| New to Procreate and intimidated by the app | A structured starting point — one patron said she "felt really overwhelmed with the Procreate app" until finding a "You can draw this" tutorial |
| Someone who "could never draw two straight lines" | Explicitly welcomed — a patron describes Flo engaging people who don't consider themselves natural drawers |
| Returning to art after years away | Useful for translating manual techniques into digital ones (a patron with an old art background says the tutorials "help me remember manual techniques and show me how to do them digitally") |
| Looking for variety | The project types vary, so you can find a subject you enjoy |
How the community works
The site is backed by a Patreon community — the homepage references 4,680 patrons, with testimonials from members who joined between 2021 and 2023. Patrons describe it as supportive and positive, with feedback on work and help finding tutorials. One patron calls the extra content "worth every penny," which indicates the community involves paid membership, though the homepage does not state specific pricing.
How to start
- Go to artwithflo.com.
- Choose a starting point from the "how would you like to start?" section.
- Pick a beginner-friendly "You can draw this" style tutorial if you're new to Procreate.
- Follow along action by action, pausing as needed.
- Explore custom brushes once you're comfortable with the basics.
The main takeaway: if you want to learn Procreate through guided, follow-along projects rather than dry software manuals, Art With Flo is built for exactly that — with a community attached if you want feedback and extra content.
