About This Class

In this class, we will create a Faux Quilted Cabin Scene in Procreate. I’m talking about a no-sew quilt, where fabric is tucked inside of styrofoam to give a piece of art the look of a quilted piece without the sewing. We will recreate this with some patterns, clipping masks, brushes, as well as some effects like wrinkles and texture.

This is beginner friendly.

For the first part of this class, we are going to focus on a more traditional style quilt by using shapes, like rectangles and triangles. Using these kind of shapes in real life, not only makes fabric easier to sew but also to tuck inside of styrofoam, so I wanted to incorporate the same thinking when creating this class.

We will then look for some inspiration before we start adding color and redefining our sketch.

We will add faux-quilted cutouts to our design.

We will add prints, shadows, highlights and textures to our faux-quilted cutouts.

We will go back just a few steps so we can add some top stitches to give our cabin scene a more traditional quilted look. This is such a great additional way to repurpose your artwork and give it a whole new look.

For the last part of this class, we will create a Winter Cabin Scene using more shapely pieces. I wanted to include this mix-matched faux quilt style, because not every faux quilt in life is entirely based on easy-to-create shapes.

This process is very similar to the first part of this class but it will definitely need more highlights and shadows to give it more wrinkles.

Faux quilts like this Winter Cabin Scene in real life doesn’t necessarily cooperate and lay flat when tucked inside styrofoam.

I’ve created a set of Procreate Pattern Brushes that you could use along with your favorite digital pattern prints and/or Procreate brushes. I’ll also include some Linen texture to even further your art into looking more like fabric.

This class is definitely for you if:

  • You love using and creating in Procreate
  • You love the look of quilts and would absolutely want to repurpose your other pieces of art using these methods
  • You’re curious about how highlights and shadows can create wrinkles in Procreate

For this class, I’ll be using the following:

  • iPad
  • Procreate app
  • Apple Pencil

I’ll show you some real life examples of Faux Quilted pieces I created using these same designs that I created for this class.

  1. To show you exactly what wrinkles and shadows of the faux seams would look like so it gives you true inspiration for your artwork.
  2. To show how normal shapes and mix-matched, more curvy, shapes give your artwork different looks.
  3. To prove to you that not only can you repurpose your artwork into faux quilted masterpieces in Procreate but also step outside your Procreate comfort zone.

In the lesson, Finding Inspiration, I mention some Pinterest boards for you to look at should you choose. I’ve listed them.

Transcripts

1. Intro: Hi, I'm commercial and I am so happy that you found this class. I have a question for you. Have you ever heard of pho quilted designs? Is a no. So quilt, you actually chunk the edges of the fabric inside the styrofoam or it stays. And it gives that illusion of a cool to peace without the hassle of sewing. I wanted to create the same thing using Procreate. For the first part of this class, we're gonna focus on shapes and talking, rectangles and trapezoids and triangles. Don't worry. There's no test. And it's okay if they're not perfect. This is not geometry. This is having fun in procreate. But I wanted to just do this first step using shapes because a lot of quilts in real life are based on shapes. One, they're easier to, so there are some odd shapes. Sometimes it's more of an application. This is where the cool two pieces underneath and the more bigger, oddly shaped as sewn over top of the quilt, usually with some kind of decorated stitch or a top stitch. We'll add some rugged Valley seems just the shadow valley that you would get if you actually took the fabric and tucked inside of Styrofoam will do this by also adding some more shadows and highlights. For those that like the traditional quilted look. I'll take you a couple of steps back and recreate that same scene and just do a top stitch around all those fakes seems this way. It gives you a little bit more of a traditional feel that you can recreate in other aspects of your artwork. Then lastly, we're going to create another cabin scene. Yes, I love Walgreens homes, but I wouldn't do a little bit of a winter scene. This is going to be created with more curves. Think of a no holds barred kinda type of artwork. I wanted to bring this aspect to you because this was created in real life. You're gonna have a lot more wrinkles in your fabric and a lot more shadows and highlights because it's a lot more difficult to tuck those edges in when you're working with a curved piece of fabric inside the Styrofoam. I'll be using my iPad Pro and an Apple pencil. I really hope you are as excited as I am. Let's get started. 2. Class Project : For the class project, I would really love to see your steps and sketch and process of creating the first cabin scene project. This is one where we're going to focus mainly on shapes and creating it. Then if you wanted to go through the extra steps of back stepping a few of the steps that we just created into more of a traditional piece with just some top stitching and some very light shadows in the valleys of our seams. I would really love to see how your cabin looks in the traditional sense of what equipped would look like in procreate. After we go through the process of creating more of a mixed matched cabin scene of curves and more wrinkles and shadows with highlights. I was loved to see your creation in the projects and resources section of this class. By you sharing the work in the projects and resources section of this class. You never know how much it might inspire others to learn this process as well. I want to be honest with you. I love looking at other people's projects. Not only to see how they perceived a certain skill or technique in a class, but I love to see their style and their process when they share it with the rest of the class. I know sometimes watching a classroom having time to actually recreate it can be overwhelming. But as a Skillshare member, you can come back to this class how often you want and add your project up. Next, we'll discuss the free resources I supply for this class. 3. Free Resources : In this class, I'm going to show you some free resources that I created to help make this process of creating the folk quilted seen in Procreate little bit quicker for you. I created several brushes. One I like to call the rugged Valley. It gives you that remedy edge, whether you use it and you smudge it or use the Gaussian blur or use it as is. It just gives you an illusion of depth and unevenness inside those valleys of where the fabric gets tucked inside the Styrofoam. A created a top stitch. So that way you can use this for a more traditional type quilted scene. And I created several pattern brushes. Three of them are just stamps. I wanted to create several pattern brushes for this class just to give you more options to choose on you're creating your piece. I know procreate comes with several already stocked inside the app. And that's great. And some of them are really cool. But as a newbie person starting out on Procreate, you might not have the library as someone who's had procreate for three years. I also wanted to give you some linen texture. This is applied as a JPEG that you can import into your cabin scene. Should you want to give your patterns a little bit more of a fabric look up next. We'll start looking for some inspiration for our cabin scene. 4. Finding Inspiration : In this lesson, we're going to find some inspiration by searching Pinterest and other websites to get inspired. Although my main focus is going to be a cabin scene, you can choose any other subject that you are inspired to draw today. I created a couple of Pinterest boards for you to check out for inspiration. You can find them under the About section of this class. Under the nose. So quilts. I wanted just to give you some more ideas and inspiration. Should you choose to design something other than cabins? But I also wanted to give you some more ideas as to what exactly is a no. So quilt. Inside the winter cabin board, you will find several examples and ideas that you can choose for your cabin. I like this one. We have a frame. A frame. As you can see, there are several styles of cabins to choose from. But my first class, I'm definitely doing a frame. You can also choose Unsplash, pixabay and Pexels.com. For other inspiration. Just search for cabin or cabin scenes. Winter cabin. If you had something in my more specific, like you could search for an A-frame cabin or a Cape Cod cabin, ranch cabin. Or you can choose to draw something entirely different for this class. If you want to use one of these as a reference, just take a screenshot and you can crop it down inside your photos app like this. I'll show you how to add this to the procreate canvas. If you want to use a reference photo. Up next, we'll start sketching. 5. Sketching : In this lesson, we're going to start sketching. I'll be focusing on the A-Frame style cabin for my scene. But you could choose any other subject that you desire if a cabin isn't what you want to draw today. And that's okay. Open Procreate, tap the plus symbol top-right, and tap the folder at the very top, we're going to choose inches, 14 by 11. With my iPad, I get 131 layers, but I definitely won't be using that many. I'm going to show you how you can combine layers just in case your iPad is limited on how many layers that you are allowed to create. Tap Create. I'm just going to choose black. I'm going to show you how to add your reference photo directly inside of Procreate. You can do this by tapping your Actions menu top-left go to Canvas references in the middle of that menu. Move the toggle switch to the right. Now Windows is going to pop up and you can import your image. And I'm going to add it from my photo gallery. And you can move the photo however, you need to be positioned inside that little window. And you can move the window by dragging it in place using the top bar. To begin our sketch, I'm gonna be using a sketching brush supplied from procreate. And I'm gonna be using a six B pencil. Now I'm going to go up to the Actions menu, which is the wrench, and turn on the Drawing Guide. I just wanted to use it as a reference when I'm drawing my lines. Because I don't need the reference photo. I'm gonna go back to the Actions menu and turn the reference photo off. I'm just going to start drawing. I'm using the break for my sky and grass. Now I'm going to draw out my cabin. An A-Frame has a really steep pitch and that just means it's a really high peak. It's definitely a roof that you would not want to have to climb on. I would definitely suggest leaving that to the professionals. We're going to draw some sliding glass doors. The front. I'm going to add more to my roof. This is the overhang. We're just going to be focusing on drawing it face on. I'm not gonna be adding sides or 3D perspective or 2D perspective and just drawing it SFM looking at face on. I'm just repositioning it just to give myself a little more room for my background. Now I want to draw the windows at the top of my A-Frame. If you see some A-Frame that you'll notice that sometimes they have a huge window right underneath the peak of that roof. Now I want to duplicate this window, copy it, and use it for my side windows. I can do this by grabbing the lasso and circling around that window and tapping copy and paste. Now I want to go to the Move tool and move it over to the side. I'm going to erase the lines I don't need. I'm going to duplicate this layer. Tap the Move tool, flip horizontally and now I'm going to reposition it on the other side of that middle window. This helps keep your cabin more uniform. Although it doesn't have to be perfect. Imperfection just gives it more characteristic when you're adding your patterns. Now I'm adding a deck. I want to add a walkway or driveway. I am going to add a sine. This is the only circle in my composition that I'm going to add. But I feel like it's gonna need something. Now this is going to be a cloud. I'm just giving myself the space I need, but I don't want curves. I'm going to try and draw this without curves. I'm going to do it like this. Race my curves. I'm not liking this. Let's go back. And let's make this more of a trapezoid side like that. That's a little bit better. Now I'm going to use triangles for my trees. I'm going to lasso around that first line and I'm going to copy and paste. I'm going to flip horizontally and move it in place. I don't necessarily want all my pieces to be perfect. I'm just going to reposition some of these trees. Disagree myself a little bit more room for the background. Sometimes you have to play around, which is always good when you're sketching. Because starting out with a sketch this way you can move things around, erase things. A lot easier to do it when, you know, is just a sketch than if you wait to move things around after everything is set in place, It's best to give it a position where you thank you wanted from the start. Just going too fast for the video while I try to figure out the placement. Now I'm going to add a wooden frame around my sliding glass doors. Next, we'll start adding some color to this beautiful scene we just created. 6. Adding Color: In this lesson, we're going to start adding color to the sketch we just created. And no worries if you haven't picked out a color palette yet. We're just going to start off with some colors that you would normally expect to see. In this cabin scene. We can add more colors and different choices later when we create our patterns. That'll be in another lesson. I'm going to add a layer by tapping the Plus symbol. And I'm going to move this below my sketch. I'm going to turn the opacity down on my sketch. Now I'm going to grab a monoline brush. This is gonna be in the calligraphy brushes supplied by Procreate. I'm going to grab a light blue for my sky. Just going to draw straight across. I'm going to fill that with color. Now I'm going to choose green for my grass. I do not want to do that. I'm going to tap the sky layer, tap Select. I'm gonna go down to the bottom here and tap Invert. And now I'm gonna go back to my layers and add a layer above the sky there and drop in my grass. That is definitely too bright for me. I'm going to go back and get a little bit lighter color and fill it in. I'm going to turn off the Select. Now I'm going to choose a color for my camera. And I'm going to draw out my cabin, duplicate that first line of my roof, flip horizontally and move it in place. Now I'm going to merge these together. I'm adding a layer so I can draw the inside of that roof pitch. This makes it easier for me to duplicate that first line, flip horizontally and move it into place. Now I'm going to merge down, down again. Now I'm drawing my windows. I'm making sure I close all my lines. You don't want any gaps. That way. Let me go back and fill with color. We won't be filling the entire canvas. I've done that several times. I don't know if you've ever done that, but I have done that several times. I'm going to duplicate that whole house and flip it this way. I get the other side and make sure all my lines of my house right now. Remember jot down at a layer. Now I'm going to draw my center window. Just cleaning up. I'm actually going to go back lasso around that first angle, that window, copy and paste. I'm gonna go back and flip horizontally and move it in place. I'm going to merge all the layers together. I'm going to lasso around that middle window. Copy and paste. And then I'm going to flip horizontally. This way, I make sure it's all uniform. I'm going to merge it down. I am going to last around that first window and copy and paste and shrink it down. This is my window frame for inside that window. I'm going to duplicate that. Flip horizontally and move it in place for the other side as well. I'm going to merge together. Now I'm going to grab that Lasso tool and circle around my middle window. I can copy and paste that. I want to reduce the size so I can use it as a frame just like I did the other two windows. I'm going to have to change it to free form so I can resize it to where it needs to be. I'm going to merge that down. Now I'm going to draw my sliding glass door frame, circle it, copy and paste, and then grab it and flip it horizontally. You can see I'm a little bit off, so I'm just going to reposition it. I'm just gonna do some erasing here and try and straighten that lineup. Draw out my frame, add color. This gives me a little bit better idea of where I need to erase even it up. I'm just going to fill the window frames and a roof overhang with color. Now I'm going to change my color. Drop color to my house. Got to change my color again. Draw my sliding glass door frame. I actually want to do this on a layer below my house. I'm gonna go back to the Layers menu and add a layer. Well, the house. Now I can draw my frame for my sliding glass doors. I'm going to reduce the opacity of my sketch, just a little bit more liberal distracting. I'm going to duplicate that first frame. Flip horizontally. Now I'm just evening out. I'm going to add a layer below the sliding glass doors for my glass. Choose a little bit lighter blue. I'm going to do the same for the windows. Now. She's a darker green and draw out my trees. For this one, I'm going to duplicate the layer, grab the Move tool and flip horizontally, move it in place. This gives me a little bit fatter tree. I'm just going to reposition it. Now. I'm going to merge all the trees together. Now I'm going to go above my grasp, but below all my layers of my house so I can add my driveway. I'm going to duplicate that layer and flip horizontally. Emerged down. Now I'm going to add a layer and draw my deck. I'm going to add a layer above my house for my Cloud. You have to make sure it's all enclosed. I'm just going to add my son. There's the base of our project. Up next, we're going to add our folk quilted cutouts. 7. Faux Quilt Cut Out: In this lesson, we're going to start adding our foe quoted cutouts by using the rugged value brush that I supplied in the free resources. Make sure your sketches turned off. Add a layer to the very top of all this. But under our sketch, we're going to grab our record Valley brush, which is in the patterns brushes that I supply you. All we're gonna do is trace around each element. You want to actually hold your pencil a little bit straight on, so it doesn't give you a shadow, but gives you more of a ragged edge line. I'm just going to fast-forward this video. As I finish this part out. I am just going back to my driveway layer and erasing that edge so it lines up with my deck. I don't know how I missed it before, but I'm glad I caught it now. Again, you don't have to be perfect, but I definitely want that to line up. Now I'm going to speed up the video and I want to finish outlining the rest of this. Now that we have every element outlined, I'm going to turn off my drawing guide. I'm going to go back and draw the line between the sky and the grass. I'm going to duplicate this by going to the gallery, swiping left and hitting duplicate. This way we can always come back to that artwork before anything is changed. I'm going to add a layer. I'm going to add several horizontal lines, chopping my scene. I'm going to erase anything that overlaps my main pieces. I'm just going to fast-forward this finish these horizontal lines up. Okay, now we're gonna add some vertical lines. I'm going to add a layer above that. I'm just going to sporadically add some vertical lines. These are lines going down. And I'm just chopping it up almost like a brick pattern, but not necessarily that uniform. As you can see here. I don't need an extra line because a tree is already chopping off that part. I'm going to keep that in mind and finish this up. I'm actually going to go back to my horizontal rule line and add lines for my driveway. Now I'm gonna go back to the vertical lines layer and add lines for my driveway, driveway, walkway. Now I'm gonna go back to my gallery and I'm duplicating this again by swiping left and hitting duplicate. This is a practice I like to do in case I need to go back and I want to change something and I don't have to recreate anything. I want to warp some of these lines because right now they're a little too perfect for my photo quoted scene. We're gonna do this by grabbing the one which is the adjustments menu and going to liquefy. My brush is about 23% and the pressure is about 43%. Now, I'm just going to move lines ever so slightly. I don't want big curves, but I also don't want extremely straight lines. Now I'm gonna go back to the next layer and do the same thing. Just pushing or pulling it. Just to give the scene a little bit of dip, an imperfection. Now I'm going back to my last layer and do the same for my son and the trees and the rest of my elements. I'm going to fast-forward the video wife finishes up. Up next, we're going to start adding our patterns and designs. 8. Adding Designs: In this lesson, we're going to start adding our patterns and designs to our artwork to give it more of a quilted look. We'll do this by using some clipping mask. I'm going to start by adding a layer above my grass. I'm going to tap on it and change it to clipping mask. Now I'm going to go back to a different shade of green and grab a pattern and choose a block area To fill. I'm going to go back and erase anything that overlaps that block. You can choose to keep using that pattern in different areas. Change your brush. I'm going in different areas just in case I overlapped a design. It makes it a lot easier if I have to erase and clean it up. Just choosing another design. Here, I'm going to add another layer and change it to clipping mask. This way I can go back and erase the edges just to clean it up without erasing the previous pattern. But I already placed down and changing my color every so often. Let me show you some really cool Procreate installed patterns that you can choose from. You go to organic. It works best if you tap it. This one is another good one. Love luminous. Sometimes you have to play with the color. Depending on your brush. You see I couldn't erase that, so I'm moving to a different area. I'm going to go to vintage binge. Each has several patterns you can choose from. Sometimes you just have to undo or double-check before you place it down. Textures is another good one for some really cool patterns. Now I'm going to my trees layer and choose clipping mask. Abstracts a good one too. I'm going to my door frame, adding a layer, clipping mask and choosing a little bit different color. And choosing my pattern to my Windows, adding a layer, clipping mask. Sometimes you just have to play around the patterns. Sometimes it just doesn't seem to work. Now I'm adding a layer above my desk, changing into clipping mask. I'm adding a layer above my driveway. Changing it to clipping mask. Just going to repeat this process. I'm going to fast-forward the video. Why finishes up? Now I'm just going to do the same for my cloud, my son. Anywhere. If you have space that's closed for a new pattern, just add another layer for a clipping mask. Then I'm going to finish it up by adding a clipping mask layer to my sky. There we have it. Up. Next we're going to start adding effects. This is where we add some shadows and highlights to give it more of a realistic look. 9. Adding Effects: In this lesson, we're going to add some effects. We're gonna do this by adding some shadows and highlights and creating some wrinkles, slight wrinkles inside this piece to give it a more realistic look. Here is the real-life example that I created, just to show you that the fabric lays semi flat, but you can still see that there's wrinkles. Every so often within the piece. I'm adding a layer to the very top, but under my sketch, grabbing black, I'm gonna be using the willow charcoal brush. This isn't a charcoal section of your procreate brushes. I love using this for shadows and highlights. This is one of my favorite brushes, but if you have your own favorite brushes, please by all means use that. I'm just going to go over some of the dips that we created with the rugged Valley brush. I just want to emphasize it just a little bit more. But I don't want too much. Because in this piece, because there are more uniform shapes, they're not gonna be as many wrinkles as you would expect it to be. I'm just going over every now and then, adding a little here and there. Even if I didn't alter that record Valley seam line. Just adding a little bit to the bottom of these a little bit to the sides of these odd shaped ones. I don't want too much. If I have too much, I can always go back and erase it or smudge it later. I'm just going to fast-forward the video or just a little bit, finish this up. I'm going to go back and smudge just a little bit, just to give it less of a harsh look, more of a shadow. Just smudging here and there. Now I'm gonna change my color to white and add a layer. I'm going to go back and just highlight next to that shadow. Just a little bit as if the light is coming down and focusing on that raised piece of fabric. Again, don't worry if you did it too much. You can always go back and erase it or smudge it extra. If it doesn't look right. Sometimes when you place on certain colors, it doesn't look as well as if it is one darker colors. But I like to add it just to give it a hint of light. It emphasizes the shadow. Just to give it more of a raised and indented look in your piece. Fast-forward the video. I finished this up. Now I'm going to go back and smudge. Fast-forward the video. I finished this up. Up next, we'll add some texture to our cabin scene. 10. Adding Texture: In this lesson, we're gonna tweak your artwork just a little bit by adding some more texture to your piece to give it more of a realistic fabric piece. We can call this piece complete. But I like to add just a little bit more texture. Sometimes I like to add this at the end because I don't always know if I want to keep it or not. So let's import our linen paper that was supplied as a download or resource section. Make sure it's at the top of all your layers, but under your sketch and we're going to position it landscape and Fit to Canvas. Now I'm going to duplicate this. I'm going to make my bottom image change it to multiply my top image, I'm going to change to color burn. I'm going to reduce the opacity of both. Just so I can see the texture ever so slightly. Now we're going to group these. Label it linen. I didn't add a pattern to the house because I wanted to be the focal point of my artwork. By adding texture, it almost gives your solid cabin a look that you already added a design to it. You could call this complete. Now that we've added the texture, this would be a great time to add your finished piece to the project section of this class. I can't wait to see what you came up with. Up next. We're going to take a few steps back and I'm going to show you how to create a more traditional quilted look for your artwork. 11. Top Stitch Faux Quilt: In this lesson, we're going to take a few steps back of the artwork we just created and add a few adjustments to give it more of a traditional quilted look. Let's duplicate this piece of artwork. We're gonna go to our layers. We're gonna turn off all the top few layers. This is a rugged Valley layers. The highlights, the shadows. All you have is the base with your colors and your patterns. Now we're going to go back to the gallery and grab the one of your original artworks where we had all the horizontal or vertical rules added, but without the adjustments of the Liquify tool, we're going to turn off all the layers, except for those top few layers. We're going to turn off the background color. All you have is this see-through image of an outline of all your elements and your horizontal and vertical roles. We're going to go to the wrench icon and copy canvas. Now we're gonna go back to that last duplicated file. We're going to tap the wrench icon and paste. And we're gonna make sure that that is moved to the top. Below the linen texture. I'm going to clean up a few of these lines because it's going to show a little bit more in this process. Now I'm gonna go back and make sure I'm on that layer. Go to the Adjustments menu and tap Gaussian Blur. And I'm going to slide it to about three or 4%. So this piece is gonna look like you physically sewed your pieces together. So there's not gonna be much of that jaggedness or the imperfection. There's gonna be more of a straight line and just double-checking, making sure everything was good. I may have to go back and smudge something. Now I'm going to go back and grab that stitch brush that's supplied in our pattern brushes. I'm going to add a layer. I'm going to choose a blue for all of the background scenes. I'm just going to run it along every every seem. If this was a real quilted piece, this would be called top stitching, which would usually be about 1 eighth of an inch. And what this does in the real-life version of a quote is, when you So two pieces together, you should press open this seems and the back or press it to one side or the other depending on your project. And to keep that seem flat and laying down, It's always nice to be able to go back and top stitch that and to give it more of a flattened and decorative look. That's why we are doing a top stitch for this piece. I am just going to go through each block, an outline. Each piece. I'm going to outline the bigger piece elements in one line. It just makes it a little bit more even and uniform. So I'm gonna save those pieces for last. This brush doesn't always start out exactly where you need to be. So if you need to either erase or tap, you could do that. Sometimes I go back and grab the Lasso tool and circle around that stitch. Move it in place. I'm going to fast-forward this video while I finish up the background. I'm saving that outline of the trees and the cabin in one long outline. Now I'm going to go back and outline each of these. I'm going to add a layer for the inside of the main elements that I want to emphasize. I'm gonna change my color to white. I'm going to go around each piece with white. I'm going to fast-forward this while I finish this up. Here's the finished piece. This gives you more of a traditional quilted feel when you look at it. Now that you've added your top stitch. This would be an awesome time for you to add your finished piece into the project section of this class. Up next, we're going to create our winter cabin scene using more curves. 12. Sketching Winter Cabin Scene: In this lesson, we're going to create a winter cabin scene. We're gonna do this by using more curves and less uniform shapes. We're going to tap the plus symbol up at the top right and create a new canvas, 14 by 11 inches. And tap Create. I'm just choosing black. I'm going to turn on the drawing guide. I'm going to tap the wrench and move the toggle to the right. I'm going to grab the six B pencil in the sketching brushes. Since I'm going to focus more on curves, I'm going to draw more of a mountain side for my background. For this section, I wanted to draw a different style cabin. Just drawing a rectangle for the base, trapezoid for my roof. I'm going to add chimney, some smoke. I'm going to add a door, some windows. I'm just going to resize this just so it's a little bit larger for my scene. And just clean it up. A little bit bigger windows so I can add some shutters. Duplicate that, and move it to the right. I'm just going to reposition my door. I'm going to make this a night scene. So I'm gonna draw a circle. Just erase some of it to make it look like a moon. Now I'm going to draw my clouds. I'm going to add some stars. I'm going to make trees. The first part of this class we may triangles, but this part I wanted to add a little bit more curves. Just repositioning. Here's my walkway. Going to add some bushes in front of my cabin. Just going to reposition this just a little bit more. Now I want to make this more of a winter scene. So I'm gonna go and add some snow, my trees, my roof. I'm going to add some icicles coming off of my roof and a pile of snow underneath my chimney. Bushes, along with a small pile that slid off the roof. So pretty much I've added everything I wanted. Up. Next, we'll start adding color to our winter cabin scene. 13. Adding Color to Our Winter Cabin: In this lesson, we're gonna start adding some color to our winter cabin. I'm going to merge all my sketch layers together. I'm going to turn the opacity down on my sketch layer and move it below my sketch. I'm going to grab a monoline brush and the calligraphy section. I'm choosing a color for my cabin. I'm just drawing this out and fill them with color. Just clean it up. I'm going to add a layer and choose a different color for my roof. I'm just duplicating that layer. Grabbing the Move tool and flip horizontally to make sure it's more uniform. And I'm going to merge that together. I'm just going to clean up. I'm going to add a layer below my roof. Pick a different color and draw my window frames. Now I'm going to duplicate that and flip horizontally and flip vertically. Merge down. Now I'm going to duplicate that. Move it to the right. Emerged down. I'm going to add a layer, choose a little bit darker color, and draw my window shutters. I'm going to duplicate that flip horizontally and move to the other side of the window. Emerged down. Now I'm going to duplicate that. Move it all over to the right and flip it horizontally. Emerge that down. Now I'm going to add a layer for my glass. This will be below my window frames. I'm going to duplicate that. Flip it horizontally and move it to the other side. Merge down. Now I'm going to add a layer, drawing my door, changing my color, adding a layer and drawing a door knob. Change in my color. Add a layer above my roof. I'm gonna draw out my chimney. I am going to turn the opacity down a little bit more of my sketch. Going to add a layer above my chimney and draw out my trees. I'm going to separate this by doing top layers first. Just clean it up. Now I'm going to add a layer below that for the middle part of my trees. And add a layer below that. For the bottom part of my trees, I'm just turning off the middle layer to make sure I can close this all up. Now I'm drawing my bushes in front of my cabin. I am going back to my background and changing the color. I'm going to add a layer and move it all the way to the bottom above the background color. Now I'm going to add the sky layer. I'm going back to my sky and tap Select. I'm going to invert. Gonna go to a layer above the sky. The color for my snow. Gonna turn to select off. Now I'm adding a layer above my trees and drawing some snow. I'm going to draw snow for my roof above my chimney. Some snow on top of my bushes. I'm also going to add that pile of snow from the roof. I'm also going to add some clouds layer. I'm going to draw a circle, fill it. And I am going to reposition it. I'm going to take the eraser and draw another circle and hold and edit it, tap circle, just repositioning it. And now I will erase the inside. I'm going to reposition that moon at a little bit more of a tilt. Maybe I'll just keep it the same. Now I'm going to draw some stars. I'm going to lasso that tap, Copy and Paste, and I'm going to resize and reposition. Now. I'm going to add a layer and draw some smoke. Now I'm adding a layer above my window glass. I'm just going to make circle of yellow for a glow as if the lights are on inside the cabin. I'm going to duplicate that. Move it to the other side. I'm going to turn my drawing guide off. Emerging these together. I'm going to add a layer below my cabin for my walkway. Just cleaning this up. I'm going to turn off my sketch. There's the base of our winter cabin scene. Up next we'll add our foe quote, cutouts to our winter cabin scene. 14. Faux Quilt Cut Outs to Winter Cabin: In this lesson, we're going to start adding our fo Cold cutouts to our winter cabin. I'm adding a layer at the very top, but below my sketch, I'm grabbing the rugged Valley brush that's in the patterns that was supplied for this class. I'm choosing black. For this. We're going to outline everything that we have drawn out first. Now that we have all that outlined, I'm going to add another layer. I can see I added all of my foe cutouts on top of that yellow stars. So I'm gonna go back, erase that, go back to my star layer, circle that, and copy and paste. And now I'm going to move it over to where it was previously. Now going back to my cutouts. Then I'm going to outline that star with the rugged Valley brush. Now I'm going to add a layer. I'm going to just start drawing cutouts. There's no rhyme or reason to what I'm doing here. It kind of reminds me of something similar to like say, a puzzle or a stained glass version. I'm just cutting out sections of everything. I can add my patterns. So this is more of a mixed matched quilt. If I were to add some kind of decorated stick or something like that, you might think this is more of like a crazy quilt. I love the look of how everything is just JICA sold out. There's not much rhyme or reason. I just love that. Look, I'm just going to continue this process of connecting elements that I drew out to other elements and chopping it up and creating quilt cut out areas. I can add patterns to it. In the next lesson. I'm going to fast-forward the video why I finish this up. Now I am going to my first layer of my foe cutouts. But before I continue, I'm going to go back to the gallery, swipe left and duplicate. Then I'm going to start working on that last duplicated cabin scene. I'm going to go to the Adjustments menu and liquefy. The pressure is at 43 and the size is 23. Now I'm just going to go through and I'm going to do some more being like I did in the first part of this class. But I'm doing it a little bit more predominantly because this is definitely going to have more edges, more shadows, along with more wrinkles. Because this is going to take a little bit. I'm going to fast forward this video. Why I finish this up. Now I'm just going to my other layer and doing the same thing. I'll fast-forward the video. Why finishes layer up. Next, we'll start adding designs and patterns to our winter cabin scene. 15. Adding Designs to Our Winter Cabin: In this lesson, we're going to start adding our designs and patterns in our winter, Kevin seen. Now we're going to start adding patterns like we did in the first part of this class. I'm going to add a layer above my sky and turn it into a clipping mask. And I'm just going to start adding patterns. It's going to continue this process out by adding layers and turning them into clipping mass and adding patterns to each of these sections, just like we did in the first part of this class. Again, I'm going to fast forward this video while I finish up this process. Up next, we'll start adding designs and patterns to our winter cabin scene. 16. Adding Effects to Our Winter Cabin: In this lesson, we're going to start adding effects to our winter cabin. This is more highlights and shadows to give it the look of having more wrinkles. Here is the real life version that I created just to show you how the fabric reacts by tequila inside of styrofoam, It's more of a curvy unless uniform shape. You can see here that there's more wrinkles in the fabric is tends to stick up a little bit here and there. There's definitely more shadows and more highlights because of those wrinkles. It definitely does not lay flat like the real life version in the first part of this class. Now we're going to add a layer to the top, but below our sketch, I'm going to change it to black. I'm going to grab the willow charcoal brush. I'm just going to add some shadows here and there, amongst some of those warped, liquefied edges that we created in the previous lesson. I'm just gonna make sure I add a little bit more like I did in the first part of this class. And if I add too much, I can always erase or smudge to make it a little bit less. I can always come back and add more if I think it needs a little bit more later on. That's the best part of having a digital project is the undo feature. I'm going to fast-forward the video while I finish this up. Now I'm just going through and adding some squiggle wines. This is going to be my wrinkles in the fabric. This is going to give it more texture and the illusion of wrinkles. Once we go back through and add some highlights. Now I'm adding a layer and grabbing white. I'm just going along my shadows just to give up my wrinkles, a little bit more of a realistic look. I'm going to fast-forward. The video finishes up. Every so often, you may have to go around and smudge. If it's too much, just smudge it out. You can see here, I need to go back and fix that. So I'm going to go back to my black layer. I'm just going to smash this out. I'm going to fast-forward the video. Next. We'll add our texture to our winter cabin scene. 17. Adding Texture to Our Winter Cabin: This lesson, we're going to add texture, just like we did in the first part of this class. Here I want to add that linen texture again. I'm going to go and add a layer to the very top of everything. But below my sketch, I'm going to grab the linen texture that I supplied for this class. I'm going to import it, rotate it to landscape, and make sure if it's the screen. I'm going to change the blend mode to multiply for the bottom layer, I'm going to duplicate it and change the top layer to Color Burn. And I'm going to reduce the opacity. Here's our piece, but the texture. You can see how the more curvy piece of the cabin scene looks more realistic because there will be actually more wrinkles in your project if it wasn't real life. Now they've added a texture to your winter Kevin scene. This would be a great time to post it in the project section of this class. I can't wait to see what you came up with. Next is a heartfelt thank you to all of you. 18. Thank You: Thank you so much for joining me in this class. I really hope you liked creating the folk quilted cabin scenes in procreate. As much as I enjoyed creating them. For this class, I wanted to show you how adding the different techniques that we created in this class into other artwork that you've already created, as well as thinking about it in your future pieces of art. Whether you're using uniform shapes or mixed matched curvy shapes, interior pieces of art. And just by adding shadows and highlights to create wrinkles along with patterns into a totally different unique piece of artwork. You're interested intake and the designs you just created in this class. And turning them into templates to create a 3D wall art. The real life version of a folk quilted scene. Make sure you check out my YouTube channel. The link will be posted on my profile page, but direct links are added to the about part of this class. This way you could check it out and you can see how much more wrinkles and highlights and shadows are curated. The two different methods. And let me tell you how much fun I had in creating them. Would you mind if I ask a favor? Would you please leave a review? It would mean so much to me to find out how you enjoyed the class and make sure you hit the Follow button to get notified on my next class. I can't wait to see you then.
