1. Welcome! :): Hi, my name is Christine and welcome to this new Procreate illustration course. You will learn how to easily create some beautiful roses together with too sleepy cats snoozing on a cozy pillar. This course will teach you how to use a limited color palette in order to create a very decorated and beautifully balanced composition, you will make this illustration by using multiple layers and the limited number of brushes to simplify your creative process, this course is very easy to follow. You will receive all the guidance needed to create a successful artwork. All you need for this course is the iPad, the Apple pencil, and the procreate app. If you are ready to have a relaxing time while building up your drawing skills, Let's get into this course. 2. Background Circle and Textures: For this wonderful and simple Procreate illustration, you will firstly need to create a new canvas that has 4000 by 4000 pixels. This will give you plenty of layers to work with. The color palette you will use for this course is the coffee time color palette that can be found in the resource page of the course. Brushes you will use are the inking, our mom brush and the textured KV brush. The two brushes can be found as well on the resource page of the course. The first thing you will want to do is to go to the layers and selecting the background. You will want to set its color. So let's choose this beautiful light beige color from the bottom right side of the color palette. Now that the background is done, you can move to the first layer. On this layer, you will create a beautiful circle in the middle of the illustration, this circle will be colored with this beautiful dark green from the top left side. So let's pick it. And with the wonderful and elegant L mom brush from inking, you can shape the circle. So let's firstly trace the circle and close it back on the top. And after this, you will hold the pen down until the shape becomes smooth and uniform. Now you will press the edit button from the top and select the circle option so you can obtain a beautiful round circle. Let's drag it a little bit to the right until it fits the center of the composition. And then you can grab the color from the corner and fill its shape. After this is done, you will select the Move tool and flip the circle horizontally so you can hide that irregular edge from the top. Now with the move tool set that the on uniform, you want to drag the corner of the circle and make it a little bit bigger. This circle will stand for a background for the next elements of the illustration. So you will want to make it a bit bigger. After this is done, you will want to create some beautiful highlights over the circle. So you will firstly pick from the color palette, the middle green from the top left. Then you will go to the brushes and grab the QV brush from textures. Then you want to maximize its size and lower the flow so you can gradually build the lights. Then you will use the selection tool to isolate the circle from the background. Now, let's pick the brush and from the top of the circle you will create a gradient, making it brighter. At the top of the circle, you will make a couple of delicate basses until the top half of the circle seems a little more light it, after this is done, you can go to the color palette and grab the next beautiful green from the top left corner. Now you will decrease the size a bit and starting from the top of the circle, you will go down with horizontal moves. So the circle can keep its 2D Luke and not look like a sphere tried to make this slide as uniform as you can and use a lower flow so you can gradually build this beautiful and delicate light. After this beautiful and simple highlight is done, you can go to the Layers and create another one. Now you will go to the color palette and pick the second badge from the right middle. And with this and the cavea brush, you can now place around the circle focusing on the corners, some of these beautiful color. This will make the composition seem more concentrated in the middle, and we'll create a bright halo around the circle. So let's create this textured shadows, focusing a bit more on the corners. Now let's pick from the color palette that beautiful being from the bottom right corner and then lowering the flow a bit. You will play some of these pitiful being just in the corners, just to give a bit of color to the delicate background. Let's give a few passes on the edges of the canvas. And with this, the background is ready for the first beautiful decorative elements. So let's move to the next step. 3. Branch and Green Leaves: This next step you will create some elegant branches and a couple of very simple leaves placed along the branch. The branch will live from the bottom left side of the circle. And we'll go up to the top right side of it with some delicate curves. For this, you will firstly create a new layer and select it. Then from the color palette, you will pick the beautiful brown color from the bottom left side. After that, you will grab the alarm branch from Inking. And now let's get a bit closer and create the lower side of the branch, starting with one tweak, going to the left side outside the circle, tried to use the plasticity and elegance of the brush to create a beautiful brand shape from one stroke. Now let's add one more beautiful branch underneath the first one. Then from the main branch you will go along the inside edge of the circle till the middle of it, getting outside on the top. Let's get a bit closer and make that angle a little bit more refined and smoke continuing the branch, you will create an S-shape getting outside through the right side of the circle, keeping the lines as organic and fluid as you can. Let's add a little twig in the middle of the branch. Then you can get a bit closer to the left side and add one more beautiful wiggly tweak after the shape of the branch is done, you can select the Move tool and set on free form. You can make the branch of bit higher maybe. So let's drag them a bit to the top and a bit to the bottom as well, just to make the shape gets outside the circle. Now you will use the selection tool to isolate the branch from the background so you can create some beautiful wood textures across the branch. Now you will pick the brush and from the color palette, you will grab the beautiful badge from the top right side. You will lower the size of the brush and then getting a bit closer, you can create a couple of lines across the branch, trying to make them feel organic by letting the brush move freely across and along the branch. Let's give two beautiful lines on the branch from the top. And now you can move to the bottom left side and create some more curves across the branches to create it feeling like the branch is banned. A few more simple lines, and now you can move to the end of the branch and create a couple more lines, making them a little bit curvy. As you can see these lines, a very beautiful sense of motion and direction to this branch. Now let's move to the left side once more and add a couple more lines on this wavy small twig. And now one more for the branch from the bottom. After you are satisfied with the beautiful tree textures you've created, you can unselect the branch. Moving on, you will create some very beautiful and simple leaf shapes along the branch. For this, you will firstly create a new layer and then going to the color palette, you will pick the beautiful middle green from the top left side. Now you can start creating these leaves, leaving from the bottom of the branch, the shape of these leaves is very simple. One curve on one side and another one on the other side, keeping the curves nice and elongated. Now you will create one more beautiful leaf going over the circle and then you can feel its shape. After this, you will make them a lot smaller than the first ones. So let's add one right here on the main branch. And then you can place the canvas so it can be easier to draw these ovals. Let's move to the next spot on the main branch a bit higher and create one more symbol, big leaf, and one smaller on this little twig from the left side. As you can see, the leaves are bigger on the main branch, a little bit smaller on the twigs. Let's go to the little twig and add one more simple leaf just below it. You don't want to add too many of them because in the next step you will add some more of a different color. So let's add one more leaf on the tweak from the top. And now you will move to the end of the branch and add two more leaves on the left and the right side of it. You don't have to rush up this process. You can take your time and relax while creating some very simple and free shapes of leaves. After you have finished creating the leaves, you can move to the next step. 4. Blue Leaves and Lights: For this next step, you will want to create some beautiful blue leaves next to the green ones. And then you will enrich the beauty of them with some simple details. For that, you will firstly go to the color palette and pick the darker blue from the bottom. And now let's get a bit closer to the bottom of the branch and start creating the symbol leaves, placing one leaf just between the two from the base. And then you can feel is formed with the color. Now you can move to the top and add one more leaf underneath the other one. Let's make the brush a bit smaller so it can be easier to create the shapes. And now let's add one more on the left side of the small twig and maybe add one more, even smaller underneath the first. Let's move on and place a couple more blue leaves next to the green one. So you will get a bit closer to the bigger one placed on the branch and add one more over the green one. Now, you will grab the color from the corner and fill the shape. Then let's move a little bit lower on the branch and place one along the branch to create some more diversity in directions. And another simple and beautiful leaf on the right side of the twig from the top next to the other. After that, you will move to the end of the branch and add one more leaf on the bottom of it from where the green leaf, it's leaving. And now you will add one more on the end of the branch, beautifully going outside. After that, you can fill the shape with color. Let's have a look at how the composition is looking. Maybe it needs a couple more blue accents. So let's add one more tiny leaf next to the one from the middle, and then you can fill its form. And now moving to the bottom, you will add one more beautiful big blue leaf on the right side of the others. Let's make sure the shape is closed at the bottom and then you can fill the shape because these leaves are on the same layer, they interact with each other. So you can simply feel the surface left uncolored from the green leaves, making the brush a bit bigger and then simply covering its surface. Look at how beautiful and symbol these leaves are. Let's make them even more beautiful by adding some veins across them and of course, some light and shadow. For that, you will want to firstly make a selection of the leaves so they don't interact with the rest of the artwork. You can as well, alpha lock the layer instead of selecting them. But this selection tool is just as good and fun to use. Now that all the leaves are selected, you will want to go to the color palette and pick the dark green from the top left corner. Now let's get a bit closer to the leaves from the bottom of the branch and decrease the flow of the brush so the color won't sing too harsh and dark. Now let's place a couple of lines across the first leaves from the bottom, tracing the lines until you made the top half of the leaf. Now you will move to the next leaf from the top, the little ones and place your canvas so you can feel nice while tracing the lines now to more middle veins for the leaves from the left side. As you can see, these lines help a lot to create that beautiful leafy look. Now let's move to the next leads from the branch and from the bottom of the leaves create those middle lines that climb towards the tip of the leaf. Such an easy process that it has so much the look of the leaves. Now you can, now you can move to the tip of the leaf and place the last middle veins, making them of different lengths to create some diversity. And with that, you have finished creating the main veins. Now you will want to play some little accents of light on one side of each leaf. For that, you will have to pick from the color palette. The light gray from the middle, decrease the flow of the brush. So the slides won't seem too harsh against the delicate color of the leaves. Now you will get a bit closer and plays on the left side of the leaves some simple passes with the pen, one pass for each, making the light may be a bit wider towards the deep. Now let's move to the left side of the canvas and place some little lights across the leaf from the bottom. Now let's move to the ones from the top and cover with this delicate light, the left side of the leaf. As you can notice in this illustration, the light comes from the left side, but you can place it on the right side as well. Now let's move to the ones from the left. It seems these little leaves means they're middle line, so let's give them the little lights on one side of their edge. And now let's pick the dark green ones for and increasing the flow and decreasing the size of the brush and give them those missing lines. Very delicate and simple to do. And with that, the beautiful leaves and the branch are ready to receive the beautiful roses of this composition. So let's move to the next step. 5. First Rose Flower: In the next step, you will create the first rows of the illustration. The rows will be later multiplied and placed in different spots on the branch. For that, you will firstly want to unselect the leaves and going to the layers, you will create a new one on top of the others. Now, from the color palette, you will pick the light badge from the bottom right side. With this beautiful badge and the hormone brush, you will firstly create a drawing of the counter of the rows. So let's increase the flow back to maximum and decrease the size. First rows will fit nice and beautiful on the top of the branch. So let's move in the middle of the circle and create the petals of the rows. You will create the first barrel shaped as a C with its lower part of the line curve to the bottom. From the middle of the curve, you will create another one going below the C-shape. This will be the exterior of the petal. Now let's plays the bottom of the rows, making a little thick spot at the bottom of the petal. Now let's get a bit closer. Then from the bottom of the rows you will go to the right with a curve, that line that bends back to the top middle of the rows and now back from the bottom, let's create the front of the petal. Now going to the right from the bottom of the rows, you will create another curve. This will create the sensation that the petals are embracing each other. Now as before, let's add one more petal on the left side below the first battle and link it to the bottom of the rose. Now let's get a bit closer and create the middle of the rows. So you will create a C on the left side of the inside and double the line in the back of the first. Now on the right side, you will repeat the process. After this, you will place a horizontal curve to signal the middle of the rows. And now let's place a curvy line on the middle of the rows to create, to pedal that are embracing each other. And with that, the drawing of the rose shape is finished. Now you can go to the color palette and grab the light pink from the bottom right side. And now let's read the rows to the corner and fill each of its beautiful pedals with this delicate pink. You can also make the rows of a different color, but make sure it's a light color. Southern roads can stand out on this beautiful dark green colored background. After the petals of the rows are colored, you will want to go to the color palette and pick the next beam from the top. Now you will decrease the flow of the brush just a bit. And now let's maybe make the brush a bit bigger. With this beautiful pink, you will create some delicate shadows on the bottom edges of the petals to give them a sense of volume. For that, you will firstly make a selection of the pink parts of the rows so you can keep the counter nice and clean. After the selection is done, you will grab the brush and starting from the bottom right side of the rows, you'll make some delicate passes of this being rosy color on the bottom side of the petals. Now you will move to the left side of the rose and repeat the process, being careful not to pass the culture on the next battles. So let's fill the inside of this petal from the right, you can use a darker nuance of pink if you want to create a stronger contrasts for this delicate roles. Now you will move to the inside of the petal from the left side, carefully filling the inside of it. Now you can place delicate shadow on the little bud from the middle, on its left side and on its right side as well. Moving to the battle from the right, Let's color the interior of the petal and for the big petal from the left side as well. Being careful not across the wide edge of the contour. Let's zoom out and maybe add one more little accents of color on the middle, following the drawing of the petal. And with that, the rose is finished. Now you will want to find a nice place for it. So you will use the Move tool and set it on uniform. You will drag it top of the branch and place it over it, where you can find a clear space between the leaves. And with that, the rose is finished. You can see how beautiful it is. Rows in your answers look on the dark green background. And with that, you can move to the next step. 6. Rose Flowers and Rose Buds: For this next Beautiful step, you will use the first rows to create some more and place them on the branch. For that, you will firstly select arouse, and then you can select the copy and paste tool from the bottom to create a new one. Now you can grab the second rows and drag it down so it can be visible. Then you'll want to flip it horizontally. And then using the work tool, you will modify its shape so it can look different from the first. So let's play with the shape, making the petals from the bottom of it wider, and then making the ones from the top smaller. Let's bring the middle a bit more to the inside. Let's select once more the uniform tool so you can drag it to the branch. Let's put it on the lower side of the branch over the big leaves and then make sure it's nicely overlaying the leaves. As you can see, it is very simple to multiply roses. So let's create one more, selecting back the less rows, clicking on it. And then you can drag the bend to the right until the entire rows is selected. Now you can wants more, press the copy and paste from the bottom, and then you can drag the rows to the middle of the circle. Now this time you will flip it vertically. And then once more using the work tool, you will play with this shape, maybe making the rose a bit narrower on its middle, shrinking down the petals from the top and bringing out the middle a bit more to the right side. And now it's ready to replaced. Let's firstly make it smaller and pressing on the green dots from the bottom you will drag the pen to the top right side so the rows can face the bottom right side of the canvas. Then you can drag it to the right side of the branch over the little leaves. The distance from the roses seems pretty balanced. So let's leave it right there. Now that the roses are place, you'll want to add on the branch just here and there, a couple of tiny rows, but so let's get a bit closer to the big roles from the left side. And firstly, let's go to the layers and bring together the roses in one layer. Now, on the same layer of the roses, Let's start to play some rosy pink circles. So you will grab the brush and now you can bring the flow to maximum and lower the size. And now let's create a simple circle. It doesn't have to be perfectly round. Now, let's move to the tweaks from the left and add one small bud on the tip of this, 11 more on the twig from the top. And then let's move to the end of the branch to the right and add one more beautiful small bird and maybe one more below the last. Let's zoom out and see where you can place maybe one more. After we are satisfied with the place and the number of buds, you will go to the color palette and grab the base color from the bottom right side. So let's grab each of the beautiful buds and then selecting the brush. You will want to create some lines across the little buds to create some kind of parallels which will seem like the buds are formed by some folded battles. So let's trace two lines over the bud from the bottom and now two more curved lines and the one from the top, fairly easy to do. Now you will move to the other birds from the top and add these pretty lines creating two curves on each of the buds. Now for the big one, Let's bring up the flow of the brush and the size. And now you will place a wavy curve on the bottom and one on the top, living from near the branch. Then you will add two more lines on the middle of the bud, creating a V-shape. For the last button, you will add one more V-shape and the little semicircle at the top. And with that, the roses and the rose buds are finished. In the next step, you will create a fluffy pink below, below the beautiful roses. So let's get into it. 7. Pink Pillow: In this step you will create a fluffy pillow for the beautiful cats. So you will start by going to the layers and create a new one on top of the others. Then you will go to the color palette and pick the light being from the bottom right side of the palette. Then picking up the OEM brush, you will place the canvas so you can easily create a parallel line to the bottom of the canvas. So let's trace a straight line on the middle of the distance between the circle and the bottom of the canvas. After this, you will draw two parallel lines leaving from each end of the line and going at 45 degrees to the left side. Let's create the first one on the right side, and then the second one. You don't have to make them perfectly straight. After closing the shape on the top with another simple line, you can feel the shape of the pillow with this beautiful pink. After the shape is filled, you will want to make the pillow seem a little more fluffy. So you'll move to the corner from the bottom right and make the corner a little more round and nice. Take your time to make it very nice and oval. After this, you can move to the left side and do the same, making that corner nice and smooth. Then you can simply fill the shape with color. After this is done, you can move to the left side and make the same. You don't have to enlarge the shape too much, just enough to make the pillow seem a bit more round. Let's move over the corner from the top as well and make it seem a bit more fluffy. After the shape of the pillow is finished. And before creating the details of the below, Let's maybe make the below a bit wider. So you will use the move to automatic and then you can drag it may be a bit to the bottom and to the right side so the kids can have enough space to sit on it. Then using the work tool, you can make the bottom a bit more round, dragging it to the bottom side of the canvas. After that, you can start to create some details for the pillow. For this, you will want to go to the color palette and pick the light burgundy color from the middle, and then increasing the flow of the brush and decreasing the size of it. You can get a bit closer to the pill and make a selection of it. Now, picking up the brush, you will create some beautiful shadows on the bottom side of the pillow, starting from the left side bend then slowly moving to the right, making the line a bit more wiggly in some areas. And one more little shadow at the end of the right side. Now that the shadow is place, you will create some highlights for that. Let's go to the color palette and grab the beautiful bash from the bottom right side. And with it, you will move to the left side of the pillow and keeping a little bit of distance from the shadow, you will draw a curvy line following the shape of the pillow. Now you will move to the middle of the pill and continue the highlight line from before creating two beautiful curvy waves. Let's zoom out and see if it needs some more. So let's get to the right side and add one more curvy line following the edge of the pillow. After this is done, you will want to create some suing marks for this. You will pick from the color palette, the dark burgundy color, and lower the size of the brush. Now you will zoom in on the left side and place a line on the top edge of the shadow living from the left and continuing on the front side of the pillow. And now you will add some more short lines placed perpendicularly. Let's continue following the top of the shadow and then adding those very tiny but very important details. And for the end of the pillow, continue following the top of the shadow and add those perpendicular short lines. Just a couple of them will be enough. Now let's move back to the left side and add a couple more current lines to create that impression of volume across the edge of the pillow. And with that, the beautiful pillow for the cats. It's finished. Now you will continue the illustration shaping the first cat. 8. White Cat Main Shape: In this step you will create the main shape of the first cat. For that, you will want to add one more layer above the other ones and then go into the color balance. You will be the brightest white from the top right side. Then using the white and the hormone brush, you will firstly place the head of the cap shaped almost like a circle. You will want to create this circle on the left side of the circle from the background below the branches. After that you will create a big oval that stands for his body. So let's firstly create the head shaping a simple circle. Then holding the pencil down, you will want to press the edit shape and drag the circle a little to the bottom left side of the canvas. After this is done, it's time to create the body of the cat shaped as a white oval. So let's imagine the body of the cat and create a beautiful oval around it. After this, you will hold the pencil down until it becomes smooth and uniform. After the oval is created, you can feel the shape of the head and the body of the cat, the same white. Let's start making some adjustments of the shapes. You will start with the cheek of the cat and make it a bit more parity, not too much, just a little bit. So the oval of the head can seem a bit more natural. After this, you can move to the right and adjust a little bit of the shape of the back, getting rid of that angle from between the head and body. And after that you can move to the bottom right side of the oval and make the back of the cat a little bit more flat. It doesn't seem like it's floating above the pillow. After this is done, you will want to pick the middle gray from below the white, and then you will start to shape the front part of the cat. So starting from the inside of the chest of the cap, you will add two curves going outside the shape and coming back to its belly. After that, firm below the head, you will descend with another curve that closes in the middle of the other port. And then you can add a short line for the chest. After that, you can bake once more the white and fill the shapes of the pause. What's left from the chest? After this is done, you will want to create the tail of the cat. So you will firstly pick again the light gray from the color palette, and then we'll shake the tail as an asset that closes in its back. So let's make this beautiful S-shaped. And after that you can go back to its beginning and double it, making it a bit wider. On the top. After that, you can go to the color ballot and once more big the white from the corner and fill the form of the tail. Now that the shape of the tail is done, you will want to create the ears of the cat. So let's once more pick the light gray and get a bit closer to the top of the head. Let's place the first one and make it very nice and perky at its top. And now following the forehead of the cat, you will add the second ear, placing it a little bit lower than the first. After that, as before, Let's grab the white and fill the shape of the ears with this clean, beautiful white. And after this is done, the main shape of the cat is finished. So let's move on and create some beautiful details. 9. White Cat Features: This ball step, you will create the features of the cat. For the beginning, you'll want to make a selection of the shape of the cat. And after that, picking up once more the light gray from the color palette, you will go to the belly of the cat and continue the contour of it with this light gray and at the bottom as well. After that, you can create a little shadow on the back of the cat, just behind the head.
