Fun With Symmetry: Create a Themed Pattern in Procreate + Make Your Own Stamp Brushes

There are so many tools in Procreate that it can feel overwhelming. And sometimes it can be difficult to know when to use them in your own work. That’s why I’ve put together a fun project that will help you use symmetry in a whole new way.

Firstly I’ll walk you through the basics of how the symmetry tool works, I’ll then guide you through making your own stamp brushes so you don’t have to draw the same things over and over again. We’ll move on to picking themes for our main project, as well as fun exercises to help you develop your style.

For your class project I want you to create a themed pattern using the symmetry tool. These illustrations can look great as prints, greeting cards and on cushions. Whether you just want a fun project to work on or need a new illustration to freshen up your portfolio then this class is for you!

What I'll be covering:

- How to use the symmetry tool

- Create your own stamp brushes

- Picking your theme and creature for your main project

- Fun exercises to find your style

- My exact process of how I create dynamic patterns

- Blocking out colours

- And lots of Procreate tips to help speed up your workflow

Whether you just want a fun project to work on or need a new illustration to freshen up your portfolio then this class is for you!
