Watch a real lesson first
The last five minutes of Lesson 1.2: the finished earring goes onto the ear, gets its sparkle and design notes, and a name.
Lesson 1.2, Building Your First Earrings. 5 minutes, sound on.
Jewelry looks hard because you draw every facet by hand
A single sapphire has dozens of facets. A pearl choker has dozens of pearls that all have to match. Draw that by hand and you run out of patience long before you get to the design.
This bundle skips that part. You build each piece from simple shapes, ready-made gemstones, settings, chains and sparkle, then spend your time on what makes jewelry beautiful: proportion, balance and a strong focal point.
By the end you will have designed earrings, an iconic necklace and a statement piece of your own, and the brushes keep working on everything you paint after that.
What makes this different
A beginner course built the way a jewelry house actually designs.
Not only for jewelry designers
Explore jewelry design for the first time, or just add gems, pearls and sparkle to the florals, portraits and patterns you already draw. And yes, you can sell what you make with the brushes.
Taught from a real luxury brief
Piaget's Creative Director brought me in to train her design team to design faster in Procreate. This mini course is that workflow, cut down so it works for a beginner on the first try.
Stones are stamped, not drawn
Princess, trillion, heart, round, emerald, oval, baguette, pear, marquise, cushion, Asscher, radiant, old European and more: 22 faceted cuts and 5 smooth cabochons, ready to stamp. Tap one into place and colour it.
Templates take away the blank page
Four jewelry design templates (earrings, necklace, ring and a full jewelry set) with the ear, neck or hand already drawn and a 1 cm scale at the bottom, so every piece starts at the right size.
From your first stone to a design of your own
Several finished pieces by the end of the course.
Lesson 1.2
Your first earrings, built on a template: a malachite heart framed with pink tourmaline and emeralds.
Lesson 2.2
Your own statement set, from concept to final artwork: necklace, earrings, ring and bracelet in one collection.
Lesson 1.1
The principles behind a beautiful piece: shapes, proportions, a focal point, balance, symmetry and repetition.
Lesson 2.1
Princess Diana's sapphire and pearl choker, broken down and reimagined: pearl strands, sapphire centrepiece, diamond details.
After
Add gems, pearls and sparkle to anything you already draw, from florals to portraits.

Your mentor
For over 15 years I've been doing illustrations for brands like Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co. and Piaget
I'm Freya Kotchakorn. My digital illustrations have been used by Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co., Piaget and Sephora, and Piaget's Creative Director brought me in to train her design team to design faster in Procreate.
More than 80,000 students have learned Procreate with me. This course is beginner-friendly on purpose: no complicated technical processes, just a simple, creative workflow and ready-made brushes.
You don't need to know anything about jewelry. You need an iPad, Procreate and a little curiosity about sparkle.

What you'll be able to do
Straight from the course plan.
- ✓
Design with intent. Use shape, proportion, a focal point, balance, symmetry and repetition so a piece looks right, not just busy.
- ✓
Combine materials. Put gemstones, pearls, metals and decorative elements together and choose a colour palette that holds them.
- ✓
Work in layers. Build a design on a template, layer by layer, and customise ready-made brush elements to make them yours.
- ✓
Learn from icons. Break a famous piece into simple elements, understand its composition, then reimagine it instead of copying it.
- ✓
Finish like a designer. Refine the composition, add the final highlights and sparkle, and export a finished artwork.
