SPRING dC accelerator LIVE program with Traci Bautista coming in MAY!
digitalCANVAS IS ALL-NEW!! This signature course is perfect if you want to explore mixed media, surface pattern design and digital collage in Procreate, it's the only course of it’s kind!
The iPad and a handful of apps have become a huge part of every stage of my creative work. From ideation for a body of artwork or creating inspiration boards for my handmade paint collections to creating color palettes from photos, to sketching, making videos for IG, to designing digital products and physical products like stamps and stencils. It has changed the way I approach my creative practice.
In this comprehensive program specifically created for mixed media artists and designers, you’ll explore all the possibilities of using Procreate in your creative process. You'll experiment with blending your traditional painting process with digital techniques to enhance your creative workflow, EXPLORE creating digital brushes and color palettes, digitizing motifs, making collage sheets, painting freestyle portraits and lettering while you create an INSPIRATION SKETCHBOOK.
PLUS get access to a BONUS digitalCANVAS INSPIRATION SKETCHBOOK 3-hour workshop, you will work through creative exercises to dive into designing your inspiration sketchbook.
Join me in the SPRING for a LIVE digitalCANVAS 4-week accelerator, a high touch, face-paced four week program where we’ll work together to start or finish a personal creative project
digitalCANVAS SPRING accelerator
dates TBA
Then during the digitalCANVAS FALL Accelerator, we’ll have weekly LIVE Q&A sessions, ideation hot seats, Procreate refresher lessons and project feedback.
The focus of this program is to have you start or complete your creative project during our time together. This could be a printed portfolio, collage series, fabric/surface pattern collection, Procreate Brushset, painting & digitizing motifs, series of digital paintings, creating a digital sketchbook to guide your traditional body of work, art journal pages or printable, artwork for holiday cards or giftwrap, collages for a photo magazine/book you could give as a holiday gift. There are so many possibilities!
What is included?
The digitalCANVAS Accelerator is a 4-week live program with the goal of having you complete your project by the end of it. Instead of designing and painting in a self-study way using a course curriculum, you will be doing it with very hands-on coaching and support so you have accountability and feedback to see great results.
The program includes:
Weekly LIVE Coaching Calls: Inside the Accelerator, you’ll receive four weeks of high-touch, live Coaching Sessions with Traci. These will be live training and ideation sessions, with time for Q&A at the end of each one.
DATES: TBA
All weekly coaching calls will be held over Zoom. They will be recorded with replays made available within 24 hours. Click the link below for additional digitalCANVAS FALL Accelerator details.

#digitalCANVAS2022
"DigitalCANVAS opened up my eyes to an many exciting techniques which I could also use in my studio. I feel that this class has helped me to grow as an artist!" ~ Elaine
Hey creative friend! I’m Traci...an artist, designer, author and educator.
Through the years, I have developed a go-to CREATIVE PLAY framework that has been the foundation of how I approach making art and my daily life. I’m excited to share this blueprint with you inside digitalCANVAS 2022!
Over the past two decades, I have taught tens of thousands of artists and creatives. I encourage students to “see things differently,” to let go and face the blank canvas boldly with freedom. Let me be your guide on this creative journey.
This year I celebrate 20 years as a creative entrepreneur taking the BOLD leap to leave Silicon Valley and go out on my own as an independent artist. It has led to designing a number of successful products, courses, and books.
I have written THREE best-selling mixed media instruction books. I'm excited to share a peek inside digital mixed media + surface design process as I guide you to create your very own digital INSPIRATION SKETCHBOOK inside digitalCANVAS!
You are a beautiful creative soul.💗
