What You Will Learn?

  • Hey there! I’m sure it is no surprise that I am posting yet another Procreate brush class: I am obsessed! This class, however, is quite different from Procreate Brushes to Make and Sell  and Simple Brushes in Procreate for Quick Compositions. If you have been in those two classes, you’ve learned plenty about custom Procreate brushes, but I still have more info for you! This new class will focus on producing pattern brushes. They feature full seamless repeats and can be oh-so-versatile..
  • In this class, Procreate Plaid and Pattern Brushes, I will show you some of my illustration and pattern design methodology, and ways to use pattern to create brushes. In the class, I take you from start to finish in creating a full seamless repeat pattern (or two…. or three). OK, it is more like a half a dozen, haha. Patterns are the basis for these types of brushes. And, I have techniques to save the pattern in many iterations. One of my goals is to show you how easy it is to adjust these brushes once they are made. The star of the show is definitely creating and using patterns to create these brushes. Of course, in the end I take you through the creation of a complete artwork, from start to finish, and show you examples. You will surprise yourself with what you can accomplish and how truly unique and lovely the finished work is..
  • I’ll walk you through:.
  • If you’re an aspiring designer with a basic knowledge of Procreate, you’ll be able to go through all the steps. This class will benefit anyone who wishes to simplify creation of brushes from seamless patterns and methods to improve efficiency in doing so..
  • The key concepts I will include:.
  • This is an ideal class for you, even if you are not sure what you will use the pattern brush for, whether it be for fabric design for sites like Spoonflower, scrapbooking paper, custom web graphics, or whatever! Learning new Procreate workflows is always desirable. I guarantee you will create something really appealing, and it’s so much fun, once you get the hang of it!.

  • This is the lesson in which I teach you about creating more patterns by creating additional seamless tiles. We will use draw assist and many other strategies to perfect our swatch. Then we make it into a brush and do a bunch of experimental testing to perfect it, with changes on the brush settings..
  • Lesson 5: Additional Ideas and Organization.
  • In this lesson, we start getting to the composition of the final artwork. You will see me use several different techniques to add interest and detail. I show you the texture brushes I have created, and I explain the settings. Throughout the process you learn much more about brushes. I will also review my methods for staying organized..
  • Lesson 6: Examples and Application.
  • At this stage, I show you a quick layout, and I will demonstrate the use of the pattern brushes.
