About This Class
Join artist and surface pattern designer Nic Squirrell as she shows you how to take art you paint in your favourite iPad app and use it to make a technical seamless repeat pattern.
You will be using the iPad from start to finish, and combining apps to get to the end result.
Nic will walk you through her process from creating the initial artwork (she will be using Procreate for this, but you can use any painting app), resizing your image, removing any background, putting it into technical seamless repeat (you won't even need maths for this bit!) through to exporting the finished pattern tiles.
Nic will show you some things you can do with your pattern too.

This class is fantastic! I am so happy to have been told about the Paintstorm app - and having Nic talk though all the setting to use has been an absolute game-changer, I would not have known where to start otherwise. Thank you!
An excellent class. Nic is knowledgeable and delivers the lessons in a straightforward, and clear way. Also nice to see the versatility of the Ipad demonstrated so fully.
Easy to follow and just fun! Thanks for the clear instructions!
Nic is an artist and illustrator living in Kent, England.
She studied Creative Visual Art & 3D Design at the University of Greenwich and loved every minute of it.
Her illustrations are on many products from prints to suitcases and everything in between.
She loves drawing on her iPad as well as using traditional media, particularly watercolour.
If anything stays still long enough, Nic will draw on it.
