Including stencils in our mixed media artwork allows us to add a uniqueness to our work without having to worry about creating perfect shapes or drawing the same elements many times over. Stencils make it easy to add shapes and patterns that can be repeated many times across our work. In this class, we will harness the power of stencils and a explore few of the different techniques you can use them with. The beauty of stenciling is that it can be undone!
This class, Create and Use Stencils for Procreate Mixed Media, will show you some of my mixed media illustration methodology, and ways to use brushes to create a stencils. In the class, I take you from start to finish in creating a full mixed media art piece, notably with the use of several stencils to create a richly layered authentic-looking organic art piece. And, I have techniques to make it so easy, you will use the techniques over and over again. No two pieces will be alike! I provide everything you will need including some stencil shapes, sponges in many forms and a variety of other assets. I have used this method over and over and have developed workflows to keep the art completely editable. But the star of the show is definitely the "stencils" creating and using brushes to create these patterns.
In this class I’ll walk you through
my step-by-step method for making stencils in Procreate
tips for creating compositions for a varied and appealing design using brushes
my workflow for use of layers and other great features like snapping
adjusting stencils to perfect the flow and adding elements
full mixed media background creation
methods for keeping the artwork fully editable for later adjustments and recoloring
If you’re an aspiring pattern designer with a good basic knowledge of Procreate, you’ll be able to go through all the steps. This class will benefit anyone who wishes to simplify creation of seamless patterns and methods to improve efficiency.
The key concepts I will include
review of my brush alterations and adjustments
a look at Procreate brushes and their various idiosyncrasies
approaches you can take in your creative work
use of blend modes to create even more exciting effects
This is an ideal class for you, even if you are not sure what you will use the art for, whether it be for fabric design for sites like Spoonflower, scrapbooking paper, custom web graphics, or whatever! Learning new Procreate workflows is always desirable. I guarantee you will create something really appealing, and it’s so much fun, once you get the hang of it!
Intro to Create and Use Stencils for Procreate Mixed Media
This short intro will give you an overview of the class.
Lesson 1: Discussing the Overview and Objectives
In this lesson, I will show you the objectives for class and show you a bunch of examples of the use of stencils in mixed media art.
Lesson 2: Methods to Create Stencils
In this lesson, I will break down the complete process of creating your own custom stencils. I show you everything from creating the source file, to importing it into the brush studio, and finally, adjusting settings. Knowing how to adjust brushes is very important in Procreate.
Lesson 3: Stencil and Clipping Mask Set-Up
In this lesson, I will explain the import of the asymmetrical stencil. I will show you some of the key techniques I use and explain every step of the way. By the end of the lesson, you will have the beginnings of a lovely layout with plenty of interest, and you will know how to use clipping masks with brushed or imported images to create that stencil effect.
Lesson 4: Sponging and Erasing
This is the lesson in which I teach you about adding the textures and fills to make this look like authentic mixed media created with stencils. I show you a bunch more adjustments for brushes as we work our way through this lesson. Our goal is to start creating contrast with the foreground images in as interesting a method as we can invent!
Lesson 5: Blend Mode Experiments
In this lesson, we start getting to essence of the final mixed media piece. You will see me use several different techniques to add interest and detail and blending modes is the star of the show here. I show you the texture brushes I have created, and I explain the settings. Throughout the process you learn much more about brushes and erasers.
Lesson 6: Finishing and Finessing
At this stage, we pull our layout together, and I will correct the small details that make it work. I bump up the contrast on the white of the leaves and many other small adjustments. We take a quick look at color adjustments and talk about next steps. This is the last step, and in this lesson, I will be wrapping up. This will show you just how versatile this technique can be and how valuable experimentation is in your development as a surface pattern designer.
Lesson 7: Conclusion, Mockup and Next Steps
We will conclude everything in this lesson. I show you a couple of quick mock-ups with the pattern and we end with a chat about next steps.
