This process of analogue pattern-making is fun, easy and beginner-friendly:
As you’ll see, we’ll start by sketching the repeat tile directly on the paper. I’ll show you how to plan ahead and prepare the design to be traced in a way that you can preserve the repeat elements without cutting them off. I’ll use acrylic inks to paint the design and achieve those lovely textures. And finally, I’ll show you how to assemble everything in Photoshop without a lot of editing and create the final pattern repeat. If you’re bored with what you can do on your iPad, you’re eager to use physical mediums, work with your hands and be more involved with the process of pattern making; then this class is definitely for you.
