Digital Arts - Making Art on Your iPad Workshop

• iPad (charged & ready to go)
• Apple Pencil (make sure it is charged and connected to your iPad) Note: the Pencil is preferable and gives a better user experience, but you can use a third-party stylus or your finger.
• Procreate from the App Store downloaded ($17.99)
• Charging cable (if your iPad is older, you may need to plug it in while you're using it - bring an extension cord if that's the case)
• Reference photos downloaded to your iPad Photos. These can be People, Places, Things - whatever your interests are. Always useful are Texture photos.
• Notebook and pen

Optional

• If you like to use a computer stand when working, bring what you usually use.
• A Paperlike Screen Protector (or something similar) can enhance your drawing experience by making the surface less slick. https://paperlike.com/

Mandatory Studio Safety Practices

Your health and safety is our priority. Our studio environments can have a number of objects, tools and chemicals that require personal protective equipment (PPE) or other consideration for your well-being. All persons (including faculty, staff and students) are asked to observe the following while in the shops and studios:

• Wear sturdy and appropriate shoes such as sneakers, closed leather shoes or work boots open-toed shoes, flip-flops or high heels are not allowed
• No long, dangling clothing or accessories (scarves, flowing sleeves, chains, long necklaces, etc.)
• Long hair must be tied back
• No bare skin if exposure to chemicals or tools/machinery is likely
• Appropriate PPE is mandatory when operating tools and equipment within the studios.
• Please consult with the faculty or studio technician to determine the appropriate PPE required for specific machines and studio processes.
  

Fit tests are required for courses requiring a respirator as noted on your material list. Arrangements will be made on-site. As these are mandatory safety practices, we will follow up directly with students who may have oversighted the above. Individuals may be asked to address any concerns before continuing to work in the studio. Be sure to buy appropriate, good-quality safety articles and equipment, i.e. safety boots, protective eyewear, hearing protection, work gloves, x-acto knives, etc. - ask your supplier for advice.
