In this class you'll learn how to create a hand painted pattern and digitize it for use in Photoshop and Illustrator as well as online on websites that allow you to design your own products. I recommend having a working knowledge of Photoshop and Illustrator to take this class. The class will cover:
Supplies: I share the supplies I use to create a hand painted pattern. Prep: I talk about my process for picking a theme and selecting a color palette. Paint: I give an in depth overview of my painting process. Digitize: Learn how to scan your artwork, cut the background out, adjust colors and more in Photoshop. Make a Pattern: Learn the latest method to create a simple grid pattern with your art in Photoshop. Use the Pattern: I go over how you can use the repeat pattern you've made in Photoshop, Illustrator and on a couple of websites where you can upload it onto real products.
