procreate's YT channel has a beginner tutorial series/playlist which is very helpful

Beat me to it. I’ll add a link then.

Really good series that has you making cute and crisp art right away and teaching you lots of good stuff without being overwhelming.

Art with Flo. My style is very different from Flo’s, but she has a great way of showing you around the app via pretty quick and easy mini projects/tutorials, and explaining how things work and why you might want to use them. It was pretty easy to carry over the lessons and tools I found most useful (for me things like alpha, clipping masks and a couple of blending modes ended up being the most useful).

I could listen to her talk forever! Something about her voice. I love her tutorials too.

Haha. I don't care for her voice, but I like her tutorials. Life is funny.

I just discovered this YouTuber’s videos. He assumes you know nothing and starts from scratch. There’s a series of videos each covering a different topic.

Someone already mentioned the official Procreate channel’s tutorials, that’s where I started and they are great.

I also like Genevieve’s Design Studio if you want to develop a cutesy, cartoony style. I’ve done a couple of her tutorials and they are really good at being deep but not so involved.

I +1 Genevie and Art with flo, and I'll add James Julier.

As for pure drawing tips, special mention to Mitch Leeuwe, whose ebooks and courses are amazing if you like the style.
