Rose Gold Enhanced Monogram on Marble with 25 Brushes and Gold and Foil Assets and Textures

What You Will Learn?

• I have always admired beautiful monograms. I have recently seen gorgeous ones sporting watercolor flowers and vines, and that was my incentive to create one for myself. It turned out to use many of the daily Procreate functions that I have been teaching you, including the use of clipping masks and the like. Once I realized that, I had a light-bulb moment, and thought it would be a great topic for a quick class. Even though you may know all about the use of clipping masks, repetition will give you even more ideas. There is always a little twist and, the end product is gorgeous!.
• Another thing I incorporated was the use of the liquify tool to create a sumptuous marble background on which our glitter and gold monogram will sit. It complements the design so well you will be impressed. We will do a two-step process for the purpose of adding the brushed gold to the marble. And if that isn’t enough bling, I have included 5 of my Glitter and Gold brushes. With those, you can add that extra little something. And then you will have all of these brushes to use again and again..
• I hope to see you in class!.

Throughout the process you learn much more about brushes..
