GIMP is a super powerful, free,2Dart package. It's also 'open source' whichmeans it's owned by the community, and constantly updated. Most of the features of the much more expensive Photoshop are available, giving you the power to create industry strength 2D art.

The challenge withthis package is it can be intimidating for beginners, especially those who don't have much confidence in art or drawing. Wemake learning from scratch easy with our simplestep-by-step process.

Even if you have no prior experience in drawing, or computer art, we'll take you from the very basics. By investing in a structured course like this you'll learn faster and more effectively than on your own, just check-out our latest reviews.

We provide challenges in every video to cement your knowledge, an active community of students and instructors to help you if you get stuck, and continuous updates to the course to improve the learning journey.

How is the course structured?

1. We start by helping you master GIMP's interface

2. Then we constrain you to just 8x8 pixels, to get you started

3. Moving on we add colour, contrast and more to bring your images alive

4. In section 2 we increase our canvas to 32x2 and beyond

5. By the end of the course you'll be able to create great looking 2D icons.
