Here's a tutorial for making repeating patterns in Procreate. If you want a hand-drawn stripe though, the complicated pattern tutorial will work better for you.
This is a more complicated pattern because the edges have to line up. There's no need to match anything on the edges. The polka dot is the easiest, but this simple stripe pattern is pretty easy as well. If something touches one edge, it needs to match the other side or it will either be cut off or look funny.įor this tutorial, we're only doing simple patterns. Note: it has to be a square on Procreate. It's usually created on a square background and as it's placed next to each other, it creates the pattern. The process is a bit different in Procreate.Ī pattern is a repeating motif. For instance, Adobe Illustrator has a pattern maker that makes this process so much easier and more precise. It can even be confusing if you have previous knowledge from another program. I see a lot of tutorials jump right in without explaining this, so it feels important to talk about. All About Pattern Makingīefore we get started, I think it's important to understand how patterns work. They're great for adding extra detail to your art, but they can also be used to create texture to an image. So when you draw, you can add polka dots instead of a solid fill. Pattern brushes apply a pattern to the stroke as you draw. I've included a mini brush set of the simple pattern brushes at the bottom of this post. The last part will be about putting it all together to make a complicated pattern brush. The next tutorial will be about making seamless patterns in Procreate, which is a bit more complicated. This first part is for making very simple pattern brushes. Part 2: How to Make Seamless Pattern Brushes is here. It's such a big tutorial that it needs to be split into multiple parts. This is part 1 of a series for making pattern brushes for Procreate. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
