Description

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 3 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.In this class I’ll walk you through:my step-by-step method for making marble in Procreatetips for creating floral compositions for a varied and appealing layoutmy workflow for use of layers and clipping masks and other great features like snappingtips for helping the watercolour flowers really stand outmethods for creating vining leavesIf you’re an aspiring graphic designer with a good basic knowledge of Procreate, you’ll be able to go through all the steps.
