Hand Painted Pattern Design

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.
