In this class, you’ll learn how to create soft pastel drawings on your iPad in Procreate. When you watch this class, you’ll get all of the pastel brushes I created plus a blending brush, paper texture brushes, and some drawing templates.
You’ll learn how to:
- create textured backgrounds, and how to control the amount of texture, vibrancy, and color in your background.
- create wispy feathers using the pastel brushes, and how to apply blended colors to the shape. I’ll show you how use the feathers as a single image, how to turn them into a pattern, and how to weave them in and out of a quote.
- create a portrait on a roughly textured brown paper.
- work from a photograph, plus some tips for getting a good portrait photo of yourself or someone else.
- turn a picture of an animal into a colorful pastel drawing.
I’ll show you how to use light and color to make your pastel drawings stand out on the page, and how to use blending to bring a real pastel look to your digital drawing. In this class, you’ll see how working with digital pastels allows you to turn any sketch or photograph into a beautifully textured and layered drawing!
