For the past few months I’ve been learning Illustration - mostly through Skillshare, but also via YouTube. It’s fun + frustrating + humbling.
Sometimes I just want to draw, but don’t know how/where to start, so I came up with my own little prompt. Thought I’d share in case you’re in the mood to mess around on your iPad, but your Covid brain just can’t.
Set up a Square, Quad Assisted Drawing Canvas
+ New Canvas
Square Size (I use 3K by 3K)
Then, Wrench, Canvas, Toggle On Drawing Guide, Edit Drawing Guide
Symmetry, Options, Quadrant, Done
Use The Monoline Brush To Create Dots That Represent Where Your Elements Will Go
Use New Layers To Add Each Element And Adjust Placement
Hide Dots Layer + Add Fill Layer To Test Colors
Use Half-Drop Or Quadrant Methods To Create Pattern
If Needed, Add A Paper Or Fabric Texture Layer Over Everything
