Create Geometric Patterns using Procreate® on the iPad
In this class, you'll learn how to create a number of simple geometric patterns using Procreate® on the iPad. These patterns are so useful for Surface Pattern Designers, especially when creating pattern collections. They make excellent blender patterns (patterns that blend your collection together) and are popular with quilters and scrapbooking paper.
This is a great class for introducing pattern designers toProcreate® as the patterns are simple to create and are a good stepping stone to the more complex patterns you can create.
You'll create a number of geometric patterns such as stripes, diagonal stripes, polkadot patterns, hand-drawn diamond patterns, fans, rainbows and simple and complex linked circle patterns.
By the end of the class, you'll be thanking me for teaching you how easy it is to create basic geometric patterns using Procreate®.
