Design and Paint a Mural using Procreate

via Skillshare

Overview

About this Class

In this class you will learn how to design and plan a mural for your home using Procreate, then paint it in real life!

We will take photos, make a moodboard and colour palette for our room; find inspiration from Pinterest and objects and colours around our home; then use Procreate to design our mural. 

When we are happy with our design I will share tips and tricks on how to transfer your digital drawing into real life painting and we will paint it onto our walls!

If you are looking for ways to brighten your room and bring colour, life and personality into your home this class is for you! 

Ideally you will have some experience in painting and will have used Procreate before, but not essential.

You will need: 

  • An iPad or tablet with Procreate and Apple Pencil or similar
  • Cardboard to make a template
  • Pencil, various paintbrushes, string, drawing pin, paint roller and palette
  • Suitable wall paint in your colours of choice (tester pots are ideal)

Resources: 

  • Moodboard and colour palette template (Procreate file)
  • Tips for removable wallpaper and vinyl printing (PDF)

Why you should join!

I am a participatory artist and illustrator with ten years experience facilitating workshops with communities of diverse ages and backgrounds. I love encouraging others to discover new ways to be creative and to broaden their own perspective of their creative practice. If you would like to get inspired, learn new ways to explore illustration and discover how you can apply your creativity to textiles and interiors then come and get involved! 

Thank you and I look forward to seeing you in the class!
