Welcome to part 2 of the class "Create Watercolor Patterns Inspired By Nature"

If you haven't watched the first class yet I'd advise you to click on the link above and complete that class before tackling this one.

If, on the other hand, you have already a few flower motifs that can be used to make a pattern, then feel free to just go ahead with this class as here I will show you how I scan my watercolor motifs, then how to clean up the motifs using different methods in Adobe Photoshop, but also how to remove the background in Procreate!

Then we will make the pattern in Photoshop using both the Pattern View method and the manual option.

I will also show you how to export your motifs from Adobe Photoshop and make a pattern in Adobe Illustrator without image tracing to keep the watercolor painterly style!

By the end of the class you will have learned skills you will be able to use in other projects as well.

Although this class can be followed by beginner students, some experience of using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator would be beneficial.
