In this class, we’ll illustrate a cat in a typical Atomic Age design and turn it into a seamless repeat pattern.

I’d love for you to upload at least your kitty illustration, but if you created more and turned them into a seamless repeat pattern, go ahead and upload those too — we’d love to see everything that you create!

Before I started my design, I built a small visual library — the same way I explain it in my flagship class. If you’d like to understand this process in more depth, make sure to check that class out as well. For this project, I collected motifs I wanted to include, along with typical color combinations.

But as always, it’s perfectly fine to follow along step by step and draw what I’m drawing, just to get the hang of it, and then adjust things to match your own style ideas.

This class comes with a custom Procreate brush set and a color palette. You’ll find these resources below as a ZIP file.

Once you download it, the file will be saved in the Files app on your iPad To unpack it, simply tap the file — and to import everything into Procreate, just tap the files once more and your iPad will take care of the rest.

And that’s all the preparation we need — so let’s move on and take a closer look at the Atomic Age and its visual characteristics.

I’ll see you in the next lesson!
