Procreate is a leading digital art app for iPad with an intuitive interface and robust set of features that empower creative hobbyists and professionals to create stunning art anywhere, any time.
A few examples of what you can create…
Why learn calligraphy on an iPad?
The convenience and limitless creative potential of creating on an iPad are unmatched and calligraphy is one of the most rewarding skills you'll ever learn
Combine a few simple lines with a skill as familiar as writing the alphabet and unwind anywhere from your couch to favorite coffee shop.
Blackletter might seem like an old-fashioned style of lettering (it's literally called "Old English" in some books and references), but it's still hugely popular in art, design, and branding.
Your New Favorite Way to Unwind
Calm the daily chaos - calligraphy is your new creative escape. Slow down and rediscover the joy of creating something beautiful by hand. It's more than writing; it's meditation with a pen.
It's a Brain Workout
Build focus, sharpen memory, and fuel creativity. Every graceful stroke trains fine motor skills and gives your mind a refreshing workout.
Make Heartfelt Gifts They'll Never Forget
Show how much you care with bespoke, hand-made art that's treasured. Craft personal, one-of-a-kind gifts that are unforgettable and will be cherished forever.
Write Your Way Into History
Every letter continues the tradition of centuries of artists and scribes. Feel the satisfying scratch of pen on paper, adding something beautiful, lasting, and unmistakably you.
Show Off Your Creative Superpowers
Calligraphy is a secret superpower turn—turn plain words into jaw-dropping artistry with pen and in or your favorite art app. Turn your writing into gallery-worthy art that doesn't just communicate—it captivates
Make Art That's Always In Style
Blackletter has dazzled for ages - from medieval manuscripts to modern album covers — it’s still stealing the spotlight. Add this timeless ace to your toolkit: from iconic logos to show-stopping sonnets, your work stays fresh long after fleeting trends fade.
So, why is it hard to make Blackletter Calligraphy Art in Procreate?
It usually boils down to three things:
"Blackletter looks intimidating, there aren't any brushes for it in the app," and "I don't know where to start"
It looks intimidating
You see beautiful calligraphy somewhere or an artist effortlessly making a masterpiece and you figure, "There's no way I could do that..."
Every artist, whether they create for fun or have an audience of millions, knows this feeling, but when you realize that you can do this, there's a world of joy on the other side of having that courage to try.
No Brushes
By default, Procreate comes with a ton of fantastic creative brushes for drawing, painting, and creating other effects, but none of them work well for writing Blackletter Calligraphy.
The Procreate Blackletter Builder comes with a unique set of guides and brushes specifically designed to simplify writing this style of calligraphy.
Where do I start?
There are lots of resources with hard-to-follow instructions for writing different Blackletter alphabets.
Many of them arrows pointing every which way just to write one letter - it's hard enough to follow on paper, let alone on an iPad.
Even if you have some experience, it can be hard to make it work on an iPad screen, and when you're not happy with your results, Blackletter in Procreate can feel like mission impossible.
How do you succeed and avoid all the uncertainty and frustration?
You get the right tools and use a system that’s easy, fun, and that works
Next, all you need is a little guidance - a supportive and encouraging helping hand that and keeps you excited to come back for more because you're making progress and having fun all along the way.
These bundles distill 1,000s of hours of teaching and learning experience intro practical systems that work
But before we chat about the bundles, a quick introduction's in order...
Who Am I?
👋 Hi, I'm Tamer and I'm on a mission to make calligraphy easy and fun to learn for everyone.
I've been featured on TV, taught at calligraphy and creative conferences, have had work published internationally, and shown in galleries and exhibitions, but I'm going to let you in on a little secret...
We're probably more alike than you think - we're both "heartists."
What's a "heartist?" It's a totally invented word for those of us who are artists at heart, with a lifelong passion for creativity who bootstrapped our learning and are self-taught.
Growing up, I followed a "sensible" career path - 9-5 work, corporate job, but zero ink stains on my hands each day. On paper it sounded great; in my heart it felt gray.
The longer I ignored that creative tug, the louder it got.
I knew something had to change or I'd forever regret not trying.
I started forging a creative path and my days were filled with color and vibrance again.
Along the way, I found calligraphy - an art form that could transform simple words into masterpieces of prose, abstracts, and even illustrations.
I was hooked.
While learning and teaching, I'd regularly meet people who loved art, too, but would dismiss the idea that they could make something beautiful because, "I'm just not artistic," or "I'm not creative."
Every time, it pierced me - because I was them not too long ago, and I was sure, absolutely positive, they could learn to make art that they loved.
They just needed a little help and encouragement.
Which is why I'm on this mission, - because nothing compares to helping fellow heartists reach the moment where they lift their pen and smile as their eyes widen, realizing, "Whoa... I made that!"

New to Procreate? Here are some answers to common questions...
Do I need the most expensive iPad to use Procreate?
Absolutely not! One of the great things about Procreate is that it works with a variety of iPad models. I had an earlier version of Procreate that ran on the very first iPad ever release (waaay back in 2010).
Here’s the compatibility list, directly from the makers of Procreate.
I don't have an iPad, which one should I get?
There are so many iPad models available now that it can be pretty hard to understand the differences and which one to buy. To help, I wrote a detailed article explaining the differences with suggestions on recommended models.
You can find the article here: Which iPad is Best for Procreate?
How do I know which particular iPad model I own?
There are so many iPad models that have been released over the years that it can be pretty hard to figure out which one you have to check against the Procreate compatibility list (see the last FAQ question above).
Here’s how to check which model of iPad you have directly from Apple: Identify Your iPad Model
Do I need a lot of supplies?
Not at all – in order to follow along, you will need any iPad, the app Procreate from the Apple App Store, and ideally an Apple Pencil. Technically, you can even draw and write with just your fingers (I’ve done this before!), but an Apple Pencil will make your experience much better and more natural.
Do I need amazing handwriting to learn calligraphy?
Nope – and this new Procreate Blackletter Builder toolkit makes it easier than ever to create beautiful gothic calligraphy art. Anyone can learn to write beautifully. 😃
There are four versions of the Apple Pencil, will any of them work with my iPad?
Unfortunately, no. Each version of the pencil – is compatible with specific iPad models, and it can be pretty confusing. To figure out which one is compatible with your iPad:
Step 1: Check which model of iPad you have – here’s an article from Apple: Identify Your iPad Model
Step 2: Check which Apple Pencil is compatible with your iPad model: Apple Pencil Compatibility
Choose Your Toolkit
All options are provided as convenient digital download and on-demand online video products so you can start your learning journey immediately. After purchase, you'll get links to download all of the books and resources, and directions on how to access any associated online course materials.

The builder guide was really useful and I simply can’t even imagine the amount of time and effort that went into it.
Safe to say, I’ll probably be using it a lot moving forward. The lessons were super informative and clear, loved that it was super easy to understand too!
Everything was also made less scary and intimidating (something I’ve always felt when I opened Procreate haha), but now I’m just excited to try things out!
So thank you Tamer for such a wonderful class!

My experience under the guise of Tamer was so enjoyable.
Tamer is kind and generous with his time and talents. He is more than a Utube superstar as he makes your experience a personal relationship with art.
I have been following Tamer for quite some time so when I signed up I didn't think I would learn much in a 2 hour workshop bc I had been collecting Tamer's brushes and templates and Utube videos all along. I was mistaken.
He is a great instructor and I feel I have a new friend.
Thank you so much Tamer!
May all your efforts be rewarded!

When I learned Blackletter Calligraphy we had to use a pencil to make our own grids and spacing calculations before even touching a pen with ink onto the paper.
Tamer is a lettering wizard (in my opinion) by making the Procreate Blackletter Builder workshop available to all of us.
He literally takes ALL the guess-work out of planning the letter/word/piece making it really FUN and EASY!
I am really really loving it!

Simply simple and straight to the point without wasting any time..
what i love about tamer is when he explains he makes chemistry sounds like a fun art class ...
Very well spent investment
